Best Answer

Yes, you need to file it because it has to be shown for legal reasons to show your accountant and superiors. Also it can also be evidence to show what was the actual cause of bankruptcy because sometimes it's not always debt.

TIP: Always keep a note of what your incomes and the money you take out to stop you going into debt and eventually bankruptcy!
