Can I get credit after filing for Chapter 13 Bankruptcy?

Surprisingly to most folks — YES. This is up to each particular credit grantor. In my experience, it is possible to get credit if the credit grantor believes and understands your reasons for filing the bankruptcy. Also, creditors realize that after you receive a discharge in bankruptcy, you are virtually debt free with the same income and with the same assets as before you filed bankruptcy.
