Once i pay off debt how long does it take to show off on my credit report and start improving my score?

I want to refinance my house and try and get a better deal.

The history remains on your credit report until seven years after the account is closed or the last activity occurs.However, it shows as "paid" within a few months of being paid, and your score starts improving at that time.

I agree with Maggie. As far as to refinancing your current mortgage, if it's fairly new and you have an open end mortgage, perhaps you should request an amortization from your bank. It will gave you a complete break down between your interest/principal. If you have a 30 year mortgage, you pay about 70% on the first 15 years. That's how the banks make their money.

Within the month. Your debt to available ratio and your debt to income ratio will improve as soon as the bureaus find out about it. Most creditors report your current balance to the bureaus once a month at statement time.

If you want to re-apply new credit card in the future, after pd', basicaly 7years I suppose, and it depends on your income.

It should improve as soon as the CRA's have the updated information from the cc companies

revolving credit utilization makes about 30% of your credit and can take up to 60 days to report
