Judgments on Credit Report

April 6, 2011 | By admin In Credit Report | Comments Off

We received a question regarding judgments on credit report that still show up after 10 years. Here is the question and our answer follows.

My husband and I are encouraged to start improving our credit after reading this! (the article “Removing Bad Payment History“) One question though, you said
“Bankruptcies and judgements can only be removed with the passage of time.”
What exactly is the “passage of time” length? I heard 7 years & then I heard 10 years for old accurate info. What can we do if the 10 years has passed but the judgment is still on the report?
Thanks again & I look forward to finding those answers to my questions
