Not applying for anything for at least 2 years can help build credit.

@Evelyn B is correct! The devastation of Bankruptcy on your credit starts to lessen in about 2 years after the fact. Paying your bills on time and maintaining a healthy credit utilization ratio of below 30% and time will see your credit score rise and get better.
Condition yourself and your mind to budge. Pay all of your needs first (rent, electric, gas, etc.) and then whatever you have left over into a savings acct/invested it. This Covid has exposed all of our bad money habits and now it is forcing us to change how we have been living.
you actually can get a secured credit card which will also help you build new credit after the bankruptcy. when you use the card, pay the balance off.
