After filing bankruptcy and receiving a discharge it is a good idea to obtain a credit report to make sure that the bankruptcy has been properly reported and that your debts are showing the proper status and/or have been removed. If your credit report has errors or discharged debts have not been removed, your bankruptcy attorney should be able to help you get your report corrected or guide you in what steps to take.
Under a recent federal law you are entitled to one free credit report per year from each of the three consumer credit reporting agencies. Each of the bureaus may have different information so you should check all three and correct any inaccuracies.
