Hi guys, have abit of confusion regarding bankruptcy and credit file? Just wanted to find out how long it will stay on for? Is it for 6 years, or does it show up indefinitely? Also how long ater you have been discharged can you take out a mortgage, be it for residential purposes or investment purpose?

The BR will stay on your credit file for 6 years from the date the order is made.

I'm not sure about the mortgage question - sorry! I'm sure one of the experts will be along shortly to answer x
