Can you file chapter 7 again if you filed bankruptcy in 2001?

Yes, but new bankruptcy reform will become effective on Oct 17, 2005. Some previous filings may or may not be deemed retroactive as to when they can be filed, as the new law will change the time frame to eight years. It will also become very difficult to file a Chapter 7 bankruptcy if the debtor has any disposable income. IRS guidelines will be used to determine the type of bankruptcy that will be allowed.


When can you file a chapter 7 bankruptcy again if you got yours cleared January 2001?

Bankruptcy is not part of financial planning. Under the bankruptcy laws effective on October 17, 2005, Chapter 7 cannot be filed unless the debtor was discharged from the previous Chapter 7 or bankruptcy more than eight years ago. The debtor cannot file a Chapter 13 unless: (1) the debtor received a discharge under Chapter 7, 11 or 12 more than four years ago; or (2) the debtor received a discharge under Chapter 13 more than two years ago.

What were the chapter 7 bankruptcy laws in 2001?

Bankruptcy laws changed dramatically in 2005 and make it considerably harder for people to file chapter 7 bankruptcy, those people who do not qualify for chapter 7 are left with the option of chapter 7. Some of the major changes with chapter 7 are:In a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the income of the person filing will be subject to a two-part test. First, your income will be calculated with exemptions such as rent and food to determine whether you can afford to pay 25 percent of your unsecured debt such as your credit card bills. Second, your income will be compared to your state's median (middle) income.You won't be allowed to file for Chapter 7 if your income is above your state's median income and you can afford to pay 25 percent of your unsecured debt. Even if your income is below the state's median income and you can pay 25 percent of your unsecured debt, the court may still deny your Chapter 7 filing. There will be very few exceptions to this test, no matter how sympathetic your case is.
