Best Answer

Yes, but you should also do the following:

1) First, obtain Dual Citizenship in the country you are emigrating to.

2) Liquidate and remove all assets from your native country to avoid possible

forfeiture by the Government, who will try to seize anything of value when

you default on your student loans. Also, obtain certified copies of all your

educational transcripts/diplomas from the original institutions you attended.

The Government may prevent you from getting these records after default.

3) Renounce the citizenship of your native country, and embrace your new

home.

4) You are now immune from debt collection on your unpaid student loans,

however you can never return to your native country without becoming

subject to collections again.

Sounds extreme, but financial freedom in Another Country is better than being a lifelong debt slave in the Land of the Free.

What is mean by Debt and Bankruptcy?

Debt is what you owe others for money the lent you expecting to be repaid by you. Bankruptcy is a federal legal court system that allows debtors to get a discharge, which prevents creditors from taking any action to collect the debt. It does not prohibit you from repaying the debts as and when you can after the discharge. Some loans cannot be discharged, such as student loans and child support arrears. Secured loans (mortgages, car loans, etc.) must either be reaffirmed or the collateral surrendered to the creditor


How can creditors size a tax refund check one year after filing chapter 7 bankruptcy?

The answer depends on who the creditor is and the status of the debt. If the debt was a student loan or other non-dischargable debt, then your tax refund can be taken. If the debt WAS discharged, ANY collection action of any kind on a discharged debt is a violation of the permanent injunction of the discharge and therefore illegal. If the creditor was not included on the creditor matrix, then informing them of the bankruptcy and discharge of the debt may be all that is necessary to have the refund returned to you. In other cases it may be necessary to file a Motion for Contempt against the creditor in bankruptcy court. This would require the re-opening of the bankruptcy.
