Chapter 7 Discharged!!!!!

Well, after what seemed like an eternity, my chapter 7 was finally discharged! It is such a great feeling. I feel like my life can unfreeze and I can begin the process of starting over.

I am going to follow the BK-700 plan to the "T".

Any idea how long before my CR's reflect the discharge?

I didn't pull my reports until 2-3 weeks post DC. 75% was updated at that point. Another 15% updated within the next 2-3 weeks. 10% was cleanup/disputes after that.

I cleaned up all of my reports to show IIB on everything. Just want to start the rebuilding process.

Congrats! Welcome to the world of post-discharge rebuilding. There will be highs and lows....focus on the destination, not the highs...and especially not the lows, and you will make it through.

Re: Chapter 7 Discharged!!!!!

Just got a MYFICO alert that my BK was updated to discharged on my EQ. So it looks like it only took a few days.
