The general rule is 90 days. If she can't get her attorney to cooperate, best bet is to contact the creditors and bureas directly using via certified letter, requesting that they update the credit report to reflect Ch 7 BK and "0" Balance.

And yes, the debts need to be debts that were incurred prior to filing the petition, and can't be "new" debts.
