January Approvals & CLIs!

BK - 14 months post DC (filed 8/2019, DC 11/2019)

 

I think one of the things that is KILLING ME are my student loans. I have 24 TLs for open SLs - approx $76k (opened between 2003 - 2007, then went back to school 2012 - 2013), all perfect payment history (IBR, $0 pymt) except for 1, showing 30/30/60/90/90/90/120/120/90, DoFD 06/2014 so those lates should be dropping off soonish right?

 

The good - helps my credit age? AAoA - 10 years 2 months
The bad - IBR caused HUGE Utilization!!! Utilization on these accounts range from 107% - 217% individually, with aggregate utlization in the installment loan category being 130% 

 

I can't get approved for decent SLs with most feedback being "Proportion of loan balances to loan amounts is too high" which I am assuming they are talking about my SLs because I PIF my credit cards every month. Not sure there is anything in my immediate future I can do to remedy this?

 

Anyways, needless to say, I was super excited to receive the following approvals, especially the Discover approval as this is the highest SL I've ever had!!! Smiley Happy
