Your mortgage is 7 months behind if you have a prior Chapter 7 which was discharged in may 2007 can you file again to save your home?

There are two parts to this answer. The first is if you are trying to "SAVE" your home you would not be filing a chapter 7. YOu would be filing a chapter 13 Which is designed for you to be able to keep your assets that have fallen into delinquency such as your home or vehicle. Chapter 13 put you into repayment plan for the 7 months that are past due spread out over 3-5 years. Chapter 7 is a liquidation of debt if your were able to file again...Which brings us to part two of the answer you would be saying in essence you want to let your house go and liquidate or zero out any remaining balance. There is a 8 year waiting period before you can file another 7 anyway and that is not the plan you need.
