[ChistineNJ]

although im almost 2yrs post bk i keep getting a indicatior that I have a short credit history. at what point will it be considered that my credit history is no longer short? the oldest acct is 13 years old (sl account still open) ?

I would say two-four years is typically a short history.  It took about 3 years before I stopped needing a co-signer due to insufficient credit history.
