I am expecting a discharge of all my debts. I already have a car loan lined up and a credit card and a secured cash loan. My credit score is 449. If I pay all of these either on time or even early..or even pay off the balance way before the payoff date, how long will it take to bring up my credit score?
 


Hard to say. Having a couple of loans on 'stand by' is a good idea. I did the same thing w/a credit card. My score improved about 25 points after being discharged from all my debts. I was able to get a new car loan at 11.25 percent less than a year after being discharged. I hope your situation is as positive as mine has been. Good Luck :)
