- Bankruptcies that, from the date of adjudication, (means decision) antedate (means predate) the report by more than 10 years. - Collection accounts and charge offs remain for 7 years from first serious delinquency or charge off date. - Paying an old debt does NOT reset the clock on reporting for another 7 years.
The collection account will fall off of your credit report 7 years from the date of the LAST DELINQUINCY reported by the orignal creditor + 180 days. In this particular case, this would make the collection fall off of your credit report in January of 2017. A lot of people believe that the collection will stay on your account for a full 7 years (in this case 2023), but that is completely false.
