Is there any possible way to keep a car when filing a chapter 7?

Answered by attorney Christopher J. Kane
Bankruptcy lawyer at Christopher J. Kane, P.C.
As long as you keep your payments current on the auto loan the lender cannot repossess it. The issue in bankruptcy will be whether you have any equity in the car, whether the car is worth more than you owe on the loan. You are entitled to a $3,000 "exemption" on the equity in the car. If you have less than $3,000 in equity, then the bankruptcy Trustee will not take an interest in the vehicle. If have more than $3,000 in equity (you have "non-exempt equity") than you can work a deal with the Trustee to pay the Trustee the amount of the non-exempt equity and keep the car.

Yes you can file separately from your husband however you need to disclose his income and all community assets. So his retirement, accounts, must also be disclosed.
