Its tough for sure.
You must recognize that no quality lender is interested.
You will be paying a huge premium to whomever is interested.
You'll see them advertising...and the "we tote your note" type lenders can sometimes be interested in doing it.
But understanding all that, virtually all of these are lenders preying on the vulnerable...and are the ones that take advantage of everyone or thing they can...frequently disguising the cost of the loan by seriously inflating the cost of the vehicle....or allowing you to buy a very overpriced one that they couldn't sell otherwise.
So, I appreciate you need a car...but as someone that is in BK and is saying your finances, and financial understanding, is very poor...you can't afford to be taken by outlandish finance scams. I know that it is tough...I should hope going BK was a tough decision too - and you don't want to be in those straights again. So if there is any way you can make due for a little while (bug friends, take the bus, all a pain, but so is going broke)...save up...even $1,000, for a car that is honestly worth (at least) that, rather than pay what may be many times more that for one not worth anything...you'll be heading in the right direction.

Do you have to be working to file for bankruptcy?
There are three types of bankruptcy namely Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, and Chapter 11 Business Bankruptcy. Chapter 7 bankruptcy will discharge most types of debts for the average citizen. It will stay on record for ten years, but the major benefit is the stay it provides which prevents creditors from hassling you. On the other hand Chapter 11 bankruptcy is used by businesses, not citizens, to reorganize debts while Chapter 13 bankruptcy is wage earner's bankruptcy, which allows you to repay your debt through a plan. Among these three, Chapter 13 bankruptcy is considered as the best option for people with a steady income, who happen to have fallen behind in loan payments. idk and i dont give rats a**. hahahaha

Some strict limitations have been set by the new bankruptcy law. Debtors will not be able to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy if they've been through a Chapter 7 within eight years of the new filing. If they want to file for Chapter 13, they will not receive a discharge within two years of a previous Chapter 13 discharge and within four years if they were discharged from a Chapter 7, 11 or 12 bankruptcy.

What are the types of bankruptcy?
Bankruptcy is a court proceeding under a federal statute called the "Bankruptcy Code". The Bankruptcy Code allows persons or other entities in financial distress relief from some or all of that person's debt. Bankruptcies are administered through a separate federal court called the United States Bankruptcy Court. There are several types of bankruptcies. For individuals, the two main types of bankruptcy filings are cases under Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 of the Bankruptcy Code. Chapter 7 cases are also referred to as "liquidation" cases. Chapter 13 cases are commonly referred to as "debt adjustment" or "wage earner" cases. Individuals can also be eligible for Chapter 11 reorganization, but Chapter 11 is normally used by debtors in business or debtors with extremely high amounts of debt. Farmers can also file a separate type of bankruptcy available only to farmers under Chapter 12 of the Bankruptcy Code. The word "Chapter" is simply a reference to a chapter number in the Bankruptcy Code. Bankruptcy is a court proceeding under a federal statute called the "Bankruptcy Code".

Bankruptcy and Debt?
If you have a mountain of debt that will force you to file for bankruptcy, there are two types of protection that you can file for with the bankruptcy courts. The first kind of bankruptcy protection is called chapter 7 bankruptcy. Under chapter 7 bankruptcy, your assets will be liquidated and the proceeds from the sales will go towards paying off your debts. Most remaining debts will then be discharged by the courts. The second kind of bankruptcy that you can file for is called chapter 13 bankruptcy. Chapter 13 bankruptcy is more closely related to debt consolidation in that your debts are reorganized and a payment plan is set up between you and your creditors. Chapter 13 bankruptcy is sometimes called a working man's bankruptcy because one of the requirements of filing for the protection is having a job with a steady income. In a chapter 13 bankruptcy filing, you and your lawyer will devise a payment repayment plan that explains to the courts how you will handle your creditors. Most payment plans allow you to make payments for a period between 30 and 60 months after the initial filing. According to current bankruptcy laws, the debtor must prove to the courts that he will be able to carry out the plan for the duration of the time period. Current chapter 13 bankruptcy laws give judges the ability to factor in your living expenses while repaying your debt. However, federal standards are in place that makes it difficult for judges to customize expenditures on a case to case basis. Chapter 13 bankruptcy can also be a punishment for those that have file for chapter 7 bankruptcy fraudulently. Many people prefer to file for chapter 7 bankruptcy because they will not have to repay most of their debts. However, not everyone qualifies for this kind of protection. In order to qualify for chapter 7 bankruptcy, a person must make no more than $167 over the median income of the state. If the courts find out that a person does violate this requirement, the chapter 7 protection can be revoked and changed to chapter 13. Most people that file for chapter 13 bankruptcy will also be required to attend classes that will teach them about money management and personal finance. If you fail to attend the classes or do not pass, your bankruptcy may be revoked, which will erase any protection that you were granted from your creditors. The laws surrounding chapter 13 bankruptcy are quite complex. Should you ever have to file for bankruptcy, hire a bankruptcy attorney who can guide you through the process. Even though your finances may be tight, hiring a bankruptcy lawyer can save you time and make sure that your interests are protected in the wake of your looming bankruptcy.
