Not to be circular, but one can get a car loan after a Chapter 13 discharge as soon as one can get some lender to give him or her a loan.
Typically, a bankruptcy affects a debtor's ability to get credit 12 to 36 months after the filing date, so by the time a Chapter 13 is discharged, at least 36 months have passed so getting a loan isn't generally affected by the bankruptcy. This is not to say that other factors won't affect one's ability to get a loan, such as employment history, debt to income ratio, credit score, etc. Please note that nothing in this posting or in any other posting constitutes legal advice; this is simply my understanding of the facts, which I do not warrant, and I am not suggesting any course of action or inaction to any person.
Some institutions will finance you while still in an open chapter 13. Check with a credit union....great rates...great service. As long as you have been current on your current bills and are at least two years into the bk.
You must wait until your Chapter 7 is discharged before entering into any financial obligation such as a loan, land contract or purchase agreement. This also includes the purchase of vehicles and merchandise.
Yes! The only thing is the chapter 13 will have to be discharged at closing. Depending on how long she has been in the bankruptcy, this may not be a big hassle. It is impossible to refinance a home in a chapter 13 without the BK being discharged. For more information, please feel free to email me at Travis.Fleury@gmail.com. I work for one of the largest direct private mortgage lenders in the country, i'd be glad to help answer any other questions.
Depends on how long the loan had been in repayment, whether or not it was insured by a non-profit. Please note that most federal loans are issued by private banks and INSURED by the government.
This depends on the type of loan you are referring to and the lender. Mortgage lenders typically want a person to have 12 months clear credit history after a bankruptcy has been Discharged (not filed). Automobile and credit card lenders like the same, but there may be exceptions. The best thing is to ask, without allowing your credit to be pulled. The only thing I would add to the other posting is..Beware of predatory lenders. The type who have ads that read "bankruptcy, bad credit, no problem", or something of that nature. IMO, they are loan sharks, and you need to be extremely cautious.
10 years before the Chapter 7 is removed. It will decrease your scores dramatically to 400s to 500s.

If you filed a Chapter 7 bankruptcy in MI and it is discharged, you can amend whatever document you want at any time. It does not matter whether it is during the process of bankruptcy or after the discharge.
IF your loan was discharged, you are NO longer the owner of the car. You can call a local wrecker company to come get it as a towaway. You cant get title to it.
