What is the worst thing that can happen in Pennsylvania if you owe credit card debt and don't pay it?

The person can be sued and if the plaintiff wins a judgment they can execute the judgment against any non-exempt property belonging to the debtor. Pennsylvania does not allow wage garnishment for creditor debt issues, but it does allow bank account levies, liens against real property and in some cases the seizure and forced liquidation of non-exempt assets.

How long do you have to wait to file bankruptcy after I have passed a property on to your son?

Thank you for passing your property to my son. Since I do not have a son, I guess it remains in limbo. If your son paid you the value (equity) of your home, you will have to disclose the transfer, but it will have no effect on your bankruptcy. If you gave the property to your son for free, and there was equity in the property, probably two years, if you gave the property knowing you were insolvent and intending to deprive your bankruptcy estate of the asset. It would have been better to discuss this with a bankruptcy lawyer before passing the property, as you might have been able to exempt the property in the filing.
