    When is a good time to check your credit report

    I was told to check on it by my legal aid office, but I really don't remember if they said after discharge or after the meeting. I just had my meeting so I was wondering if it's too early.

    I suppose it depends on what your purpose in checking your credit is... I plan to enroll in a monthly service just after the 341 and watch it closely to make sure everything gets reported properly.

      A good time is 2 to 3 months after your discharge. It can sometimes take your creditors some time to get your info updated on your credit report.
