Understand...YOU file bankruptcy...it involves all of your assets and all of your debts. Some of both may be exempt. You don't pick and chose what you want to include. The length of time you owe it, or the length of time you own it, is not important.

Any transaction, generally for 2 years prior to the BK, can be challenged as being preferential, but that is if it is thought you tried to move (or hide) assets or something of value, not get debt. (What happened to the value/money you received from any recent debt may be a question since it could be wanted to pay other debts).

Can you file bankruptcy on Sally Mae student loan?

No. Under no bankruptcy scheme will student loan obligations be dischargeable. Rather, they will remain with you until they are paid off and just because you have filed for bankruptcy does not mean that the loan interest rates will stop either. This is a debt you should attend to as soon as you can and if it is a major reason for your filing for bankruptcy then I urge you to reconsider and speak with an attorney first.

How can one get a loan if they have declared bankruptcy?

Getting a loan after bankruptcy can be difficult depending on what type of bankruptcy one files. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy, one cannot even apply for credit during the length of the bankruptcy. In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, that is a different story. One can file Chapter 7 bankruptcy and as soon as it is discharged can apply for credit. The only problem with getting a loan after bankruptcy is that you may have to have a co-signer until you build up some positive credit.
