When filing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy schedule J, if your monthly debt exceeds your monthly income, what happens?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Joseph F. Hook (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Joseph F. Hook Attorney at Law
In filling out schedule J put in your monthly living expenses. Include debt payments that are secured by your home or car that you intend on continuing to pay. Do not include in schedule J payments on unsecured debt that you anticipate will be discharged.

Can I file bankruptcy after starting a short sale?

Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
You can do anything you like, but if you file bankruptcy before your short sale is completed, I can pretty much guarantee that the short sale will fall through.

I am a cosigner on a house and the other person has declared chapter 11 bankruptcy what are my options?

Keith Austin Wellman
Answered by attorney Keith Austin Wellman (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Wellman Law LLC
It would be helpful to know more information such as whether you live there, whether the other cosigner intends to continue paying on the house, whether you are paying on the house, whether there is equity in the house and what state you live in. If you are paying on the house now, there is little to no impact. The other cosigner simply will not be responsible for it going forward. If they are paying the loan, all is well for now, but they may be able discharge their liability on the debt either with a plan amendment or conversion to Chapter 7 (By the way, I'm guessing the cosigner filed a 7 or 13 because 11's are rare for individuals, but it's possible). In the case of a Bankruptcy discharge or the case that they are not paying it to begin with, you remain responsible for the loan. From that point the question is whether you want to save the house for equity's sake or credit's sake or have no choice but to walk away. In some states the mortgage company can really only get the house back and can't come after you for personal recovery. In other states, like Kansas, personal recovery ("in personam") can be requested, but is rarely pursued in my experience, at least on the consumer side (i.e. non-commercial).
