How soon after filing Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, can you file either Chapter 13 or Chapter 7 Banruptcy again?
You can ask the court to reopen your case, or you can file new schedules.
6 Years from the date of filing of the Chapter 13. (Only because it was converted).
Never
This year, they made a law that you have to wait eight years.
That depends on your situation. If you have filed but not received discharge of debt, then you may refile immediately. If you filed for chapter 7 and received discharge of debt, then you can file eight years after discharge date for chapter 7. If filed under chapter 13 and received discharge of debt, can refile after two years for same chapter 13. http://www.jacksonwhitelaw.com/what-we-do/get-help-filing-for-bankruptcy/ If the first bankruptcy, C. 7, was dismissed for cause, you have to wait 180 days before refiling. If you file a C. 7 and get a discharge, you can file a C, 13 immediately after the 7 is closed, called a "Chapter 20" by bankruptcy lawyers who know what they are talking about.
You can try refiling in 180 days. Unless there are extentuating circumstances.
Under the new Bankruptcy laws you must now wait 8 years before filing another Chapter & or Total Bankruptcy as it is better know. You may be eligible to file if eligible a Chapter 13 to structure repayment to those creditors.
Under the bankruptcy laws effective on October 17, 2005, Chapter 7 cannot be filed unless the debtor was discharged from the previous Chapter 7 or bankruptcy more than eight years ago. The debtor cannot file a Chapter 13 unless: (1) the debtor received a discharge under Chapter 7, 11 or 12 more than four years ago; or (2) the debtor received a discharge under Chapter 13 more than two years ago.
You can only file bankruptcy once every 7 years there is nothing you can do until then.
Chapter 7 of the bible will always be chapter 7.
If your home is "reaffirmed" within the chapter 13 and chapter 7. which is basically, you paying the lender within the bankrupcty transaction to contract with you in keeping your home and not losing it. please note: each time you "reaffirm" you are paying each transaction, i.e. chapter 13 (1x) converting to chapter 7 (2x). you can only convert any case ONLY one time. i.e. if your Lawyer errors and lets say begins as a chapter 7 then converts it to a 13, and it should have been a 7 to begin with, then you must request it to be "dismissed" and refile a NEW case. If that happens, get an entire NEW Attorney so this does not happen again. good luck.
