How long will it take to be prosecuted and jailed if the credit card is overdue for 5,000?

If the credit card balance of 5,000 is overdue for three months, you will be prosecuted and imprisoned. If the overdraft amount reaches more than 10,000 yuan and is not repaid for more than 3 months after two collections by the card-issuing bank, it constitutes a crime of credit card fraud and will be prosecuted for criminal liability.

If a credit card of 5,000 is not repaid for three months overdue, the bank will freeze the card and classify the cardholder as a prohibited customer. At the same time, the bank will also sue the cardholder for credit card fraud and malicious overdraft, and the court will enforce it. If the cardholder refuses to repay after being sued and the amount owed exceeds RMB 10,000, the cardholder will face dual penalties of criminal punishment and fines. Malicious overdrafts should be investigated for criminal liability, but if all overdrafts and interests have been repaid after the public security organ files the case and before the people's court makes a judgment, they may be given a lighter punishment. If the circumstances are minor, they may be exempted from punishment. In addition, if the amount of malicious overdraft is relatively large and all the overdraft interest has been repaid before the public security organ files the case, and the circumstances are obviously minor, criminal liability may not be pursued according to law. The credit card party shall repay in time before the repayment date.
