No, you can't have two separate bankruptcies at once. If you are under a chapter 13, and are no longer able to make your plan payments, then you can convert your case from a 13 to a 7.
Yes.
No. Child support is not discharged in bankruptcy.
if you filed chapter 13 and it was discharged in 2005 can you file chapter 7 in 2009
There are no time limits for filing a Chapt. 13.
not at the same time, and you'll have to wait a certain period of time after being dismissed/discharged from one before filing the other.
Yes, but child support is not discharged in bankruptcy.
You can indeed file a chapter seven. However, new bankruptcy reforms will go into effect in October, and it will be much more difficult to file a chapter seven, total liquidation BK.
What is Legal to file Chapter 13 on ?
:A bankruptcy under chapter 7 or 11, or a non-discharged or dismissed chapter 13 bankruptcy generally remains on your credit file for 10 years from the date filed. A discharged chapter 13 bankruptcy generally remains on your credit file for 7 years from the date filed.
You can only have one bankruptcy pending at a time, so if you mean after your c. 7 is closed, yes, if you mean after you get your discharge but before your case is closed, no.
A Chapter 13, whether it is dismissed or successfully receives discharge, is on your credit report for 7 years. A chapter 7 is on your credit report for 10 years. i called equifax and a discharged chapter 13 stays on for 7 years and a dismissed chapter 13 stays on for 10 years
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.
