    when to pull credit scores?

    I was just discharged on Tuesday (7/1/08), I was wondering should I go ahead and pay for all three scores now or should I wait a week or two to get the most bang for my buck?

    If you do a search on here you will find a ton of postings about obtaining credit reports, scores, etc. after discharge. You can do what you want to personally but it's always best to wait a few months after discharge to start to clean up your reports. It is going to take you at least two years or longer (after any BK) to get at a decent level and even then some can and can't. BK remains on your credit for 10 years after a Chapter 7 discharge and some find out that no matter how good their scores, the BK itself prevents and stops a lot.

      Nolo Press book on filing Chapter 7, there are others too. (I have no affiliation with Nolo Press; just a happy customer.) Best wishes to you!
