Accounts with delinquent payments stick around on your credit report for up to seven years. Exceptions are bankruptcies and unpaid tax liens, which can stay on your credit report for up to 10 and seven years, respectively. Timing Is Everything. The seven-year clock starts ticking on the date the balance due became delinquent.
Like collection accounts, late payments can remain on your credit reports for up to seven years and also have a negative impact on your scores. But, also like collection accounts, they too have less impact as they get older. Itâs good to keep in mind that not all late payments are equal. A payment that is 30 or 60 days late isnât going to have as serious an effect on your credit score as a payment thatâs 90 days past due.
