Can you apply for federal student loans while under chapter 13?

Yes, you can apply for federal student loans while under Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Filing for Chapter 13 does not affect your eligibility for federal student aid, as the loans are not considered income. However, it's important to ensure that your repayment plan is manageable alongside any new student loans you may take on. Always consult with a financial advisor or bankruptcy attorney for personalized guidance.

Yes, it is possible to obtain a student loan after filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, but it may be more challenging. Private lenders often consider your credit history, which may be affected by the bankruptcy. Additionally, while federal student loans typically do not require a credit check, private loans may. It's advisable to check with various lenders for their specific policies regarding borrowers with a bankruptcy history.

Can a judgment be dismissed if you file for bankruptcy?

To get technical, a bankruptcy does not "dismiss" a judgment. However, the end result is the same- a bankruptcy will "discharge" the debtors responsibility to pay the judgment which makes unenforceable - uncollectible. It is against Federal law to try and collect funds that have been discharged in bankruptcy. Prior to the discharge in a bankruptcy, and IMMEDIATELY after the filing of your bankruptcy petition, an "automatic stay" by the court is put in place to freeze all collections actions against you. There are several exceptions which include certain taxes, student loans and fraud.

Can you file chapter 7 and not include your student loans in the bankruptcy since they are in deferment and also continue getting student loans while in college?

I believe that student loans are a category of debt that is not dischargable in bankruptcy. The bankruptcy will show up on any credit reports, and you may subsequently be unable to et additional loans. I filed for bankrupcy in 1998. I was able to obtain Student Loans despite the bankruptcy in 1999-2000. My past credit history was not considered when determining my student loan application.


I filed bankruptcy under Chapter 13. Student loans were discharged under hardship. Do I still have to pay them?

Chapter 13 is "reorganization" plan for payment. Student loans were within the plan for payment? or were they discharged within another bankruptcy? normally student loans are not dischargable, (11 U.S.C. sec. 523(a)(8) bankruptcy:) there are two exceptions: 1: loans are not from any governmental agency unit or non profit 2: paying the loan will impose an undue hardship to dependents.
