BK 7 two year anniversary.

I filed for BK 7 on 3/28/16 and was discharged on 7/08/16. The BK is the only negative thing on any of my 3 reports. Should I be expecting a score change when the BK turns 2 years old? Would any change be from file or from discharge date? Hoping someone can let me know what to expect. Thanks in advance.

Re: BK 7 two year anniversary.

Is the BK your most recent negative? If it is I would expect a score bump at 2 years. If you have a negative more recent than 2 yrs, you may not see a score increase since Fico counts how recent is the negative.

Re: BK 7 two year anniversary.

Thanks for replying. My BK is my only and most recent negative. The only account I included in the BK aged off my report a few months after my BK discharge. I was wondering if I might be put in a new scorecard and maybe even lose points.

Have you added any new credit since the discharge, especally at least one revolving account?

Thanks-
I have a really good rebuild. I’m just wondering about the effect of the BK 7 aging to two years old. I was wondering if I will get rebuckted to a better scorecard and lose points or if I might gain points when my newest derogatory ages to two years old.

Re: BK 7 two year anniversary.

I tried the calculator. It wasn’t specific enough about BK. I put me 35 points lower than I am now. It has a range of 1 to 3 years for last derogatory. I was wondering if 2 years specifically was somehow special but that won’t tell me. I hope I’m not about to drop 35 points.
