Your trustee is the only person who can advise you. However, it has been my experience (mortgage lending) that you must first obtain the trustee's permission to refinance and I believe the full amount is always due to the mortgage company.

You did not reafirm your mortgage after filing chapter 7 how do you keep your house?

You had to sign and file a "statement of Intention" indicating if you were surrendering the house or reaffirming the debt. If the mortgage company did not send you a reaffirmation agreement, or your lawyer did not prepare one, you should still be able to keep the house, assuming you have continued to make the mortgage payments. If you did not, and are seriously in arrears, you will have to see if a chapter 13 is possible. See a knowledgeable bankruptcy lawyer.

You are in a Chaper 13 and all payments are made on time you want to refinance your mortgage already approved to a lower interest rate Must you borrow all the money over your mortgage balance to pay o?

You do not understand what is meant by refinancing. Refinancing a mortgage means you borrow at least enough to pay all the existing liens, including mortgages, and the new loan becomes a lien (mortgage) against your property. This will have a serious effect on your chapter 13, assuming there are mortgage arrears included in the plan, or if the plan pays less than 100% to the unsecured. Be sure to review this with an experienced bankruptcy before you try this.

Can you keep your house after a bankruptcy?

Not unless your bankruptcy did the right things to allow you to keep it. If you are not in arrears in your mortgage payments before filing, you have to continue making the payments - preferably before the due date. If you are in arrears, you must file a chapter 13, with a plan to pay the arrears and whatever part of the unsecured debt you have to pay. Once the plan is completed, you can keep your house. If you get behind in your post-petition payments due, the bank will apply for relief from the automatic stay and you will lose your house.
