Getting a personal loan after bankruptcy is possible, but will take time and patience (unless it's removed).
Personal loan lenders will rarely approve bankruptcies for at least three years.
Your credit score post-bankruptcy will drop up to 240 points, giving you a "Very Poor" credit rating.
We suggest 5 steps to work towards apersonal loan after bankruptcy:
- Open two credit builder cards (payment history is 35% of your score)
- Open one credit builder loan (credit mix is 10% of your score)
- Find a friend or family member to add you to their old credit card(s)
- Find a friend or family member willing to co-sign
- Dispute the accounts for validity and accuracy
