While there does not seem to be any limit to the number of loans or debts you can claim on a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, there are restrictions as to the nature of your claims. Debts that will not be discharged include debts from alimony or child support, debts from accidents involving intoxication, educational benefit overpayment or loans made or guaranteed by any government department, debts for taxes, and certain debts for injuries caused by the debtor to another entity in a willful or mailicious manner. More information on Chapter 7 Bankruptcy rules and regulations is available at http://www.uscourts.gov.
When you file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you are responsible for listing all of your debts. Some debts are generally not dischargable (i.e. child support, most taxes, student loans, secured debts, etc.). When you receive a discharge for dischargeable debts, the discharge generally applies to debts listed in your bankruptcy filing and any subsequent amendments. The discharge does not apply to date incurred after you filed bankruptcy and generally does not apply to debts that you failed to list in the bankruptcy.
The estate is responsible for paying off any debts. However, in most cases if the debts exceed the value of the estate, the child is not required to pay the difference. This may not keep the collectors from trying.
