How long does it take to get a discharge in bankruptcy?

The deadline for objections to a debtor’s discharge in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy is usually a time period of approximately two months after the date of the creditors’ meeting. This means that the debtor would have to wait at least this minimum two month period in order to thereafter receive an order of discharge from the court. A creditors’ meeting successfully resulting in a trustee’s report of no distribution (the debtor has no non-exempt assets and has not transferred property out of their estate) is a good indication that there would not be objections to discharge expected.
