Under the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act, bankruptcies can be reported for 10 years from the filing date (not the discharge date, which comes later). However, all three major credit reporting agencies will remove Chapter 13 bankruptcies seven years from the date the case was filed.
Occasionally I have a bankruptcy client ask me how to get a bankruptcy off of their credit report, before the time period runs. Chapter 7 bankruptcy is reported by the credit bureaus for 10 years from when the case is filed, and chapter 13 bankruptcy is reported for 7 years from when filed, for most purposes.

But they are illegal, they are fraudulent, and you can get in much worse trouble than having a bankruptcy on your credit report.
