I suppose you will be liable to pay the debts and dues on that account only. Please contact the attorney for what is stated in the divorce statement.

Hi Retheah,

If the account was awarded to your ex-husband during the divorce settlement, you need to inform the creditor about that. As the account was awarded to him, I don't think you would be held responsible for the payments.

Thanks

Hi Stacye,

As your Chapter 13 bankruptcy filing has been dismissed, the car lender can now claim the dues from you and sue you for the debts. As far as the false ssn number is concerned, this could be considered as a fraud and a lawsuit can be filed against you.

You can definitely file Chapter 7 bankruptcy. You should contact your bankruptcy attorney and check out what you need to do in this regard.

Thanks

Hi mary!

Welcome to forums!

If you've too much equity in the property, you won't be able to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy. But it won't bar you from filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy. As far as your payments are concerned, it will depend upon your financial situation. Your lender would check your financial situation and based on that he would give you a repayment plan. This will help you in paying off the dues within 3-5 years.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.

If I forgot to reaffirm a loan when filing can it be reaffirmed at the 341 meeting?

Welcome Dorothy,

It is better to reaffirm the loan before your bankruptcy is discharged by the court. Once the bankruptcy is discharged, it would be difficult for you to reaffirm the loan. In such a situation, you'll have to reopen your bankruptcy and get the loan reaffirmed.

Hi yolanda,

If your bankruptcy has been dismissed by the court, then you will have to re-file your bankruptcy. You can contact your bankruptcy attorney and he would let you know what steps you need to take in this regard.

Hi Linda!

Welcome to forums!

As your bankruptcy was dismissed, your creditors can sue you for the debts. However, as far as I know, your creditors will not be able to garnish your social security income. If you want to file bankruptcy again, you can contact an attorney and take his opinion. I don't think you would face any issues while filing bankruptcy again.

Feel free to ask if you've further queries.
