The chex system reportage is for five years. There are banks who will allow a person to open an account under specific guidelines, such as a minimum security deposit. Another option is to have a relative open an account and add the person as an authorized account user. It is also possible to obtain a Visa or MC Stored Value Card. The fees can be rather high, but the card can be used similar to a debit card, to pay bills online, and so forth. Generally within 6 months after the BK discharge it becomes easier to find a bank willing to let the person open standard accounts.

When you co-sign on a loan or mortgage for someone, you are promising to make the loan payments if they can't.

Of course you can. The card issuer has to be listed along with the balance owed.

Any amount in a checking account that cannot be exempted under state or federal exemptions becomes property of the bankruptcy estate. You don't get to keep it.

You may lose the property to the creditors if someone tracks it down. You would then be out of the property and any money you paid for it.
