Bankruptcy is filed in "Federal Court". It doesn't make any difference where your assets are. The only time you can hold out is if your assets are outside the U.S. and the bankruptcy court doesn't know about them.

The answer depends on the type of bankruptcy you file and the value of your home. In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, you may be required to sell the home unless it falls within certain exemption limits. In Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you can typically keep your home and create a repayment plan to catch up on missed mortgage payments. It's best to consult with a bankruptcy attorney to understand your specific situation.
