How to Get Credit After Filing Bankruptcy: The Complete Guide to Getting and Keeping Your Credit Under Control

People file bankruptcy for a variety of reasons, such as preventing foreclosure on their homes, preventing repossession of property, loss of employment, or reducing or eliminating debts. The most common types of bankruptcy for which individuals file are Chapter 7 and Chapter 13.
