First Post! Question About Bankruptcy and How it Affects My Score

Hello Everyone!

 

First, this site is amazing. I will be doing a full post soon, because I need a lot of help. My credit is terrible, and years of severe depression have really made my financial life a mess. But...that said, this site is very inspiring, and I hope I can soon join the garden club!

 

Quick question, I have a BK from 2003, which I am guessing will drop off in August. How will that affect my score? 

 

Thanks everyone!

 

Nikki

Hi Nikki,

Congrats on the almost ready to fall off BK, I just read a post on the bankruptcy forum in regards to your question,

one of the mods said that he has seen from low double digits to 100+ after fall off.

Welcome to the forum and best of luck to you, see ya in the gardenSmiley Happy

Has all of the associated debt IIB already dropped off and is the BK the last negative you have?
