Correct credit score
I'm sure this has been covered innumerable times on here but I just need an idiot proof answer if possible. I declared bankruptcy in 2010 and foolishly have never cleaned up my credit reports, never really been an issue as every time we needed credit checking we used my wife's name, she wasn't included in the bankruptcy so…
