how long until hard credit inquiries go away
Â· just now. Report Abuse. It depends on how many recent requests for credit you have made, as indicated by inquiries to the credit reporting agencies. Inquiries remain on your credit report for two years, although FICOÂ® scores only consider inquiries from the last 12 months. FICOÂ® scores have been carefully designed to count only those inquiries that truly impact credit risk. Source(s): Fair Issac Corporation.
