If you are a secondary card holder and the primary card holder declares bankruptcy how does that affect your score and what if you cancel your account before he declares bankruptcy?

If the BK filer is allowed to discharge the debt a joint account holder who is not a party to the bankruptcy becomes solely responsible for the entire amount. Cancelling or closing the account will not change the fact that the person will still owe the debt and it will eliminate the possibility of said person to negotiate terms with the lender if it becomes necessary. If the joint account holder continues to meet the required terms of the account agreement his or her credit score will not be negatively affected.


If an account is closed by a credit grantor why would the card holder continue to make payments after bankruptcy findings are closed?

The card holder is under no legal obligation for the card holder to continue making payments after filing for bankruptcy, unless the case is dismissed without a discharge.

Can Chapter 7 remove your name from a joint mortgage?

There is nothing that "removes" a name from a mortgage. That contract, like all contracts, is relevant until it is completed (paid). However, chapter 7 bankruptcy can discharge the debt. On any joint debt that one party discharges through bankruptcy, the other account holder becomes 100% liable for the balance.
