Work with your bankruptcy attorney to verify which debts are included in your filing.

As of the date of your filing, ongoing assessments become due and owing, together with any new special assessments or fines incurred after that date.

Your question sounds like there was an original HOA, which was superseded by a new HOA.

The new HOA has its own form of assessments, regardless of the form of assessments paid to the original HOA.
