Should I file for bankruptcy if I am back on a loan?

Whether you should file bankruptcy or not will require a full review of all of the financial circumstances of your case. Unless your parents obtained a security interest in the car the loan to them will likley be treated as a general unsecured debt. Depending on the value of the car, you may well be able to keep the car. You must list all creditors, including your parents on your bankruptcy schedule should you file.

Is it too early to refinance or do we have to wait for the 10 year period?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Thomas Vogele & Associates, APC
There is so much misinformation, most of it urban legend, about what a discharged debtor can and cannot do. There is nothing preventing you from borrowing, refinancing or doing anything else post-discharge. The impediment is the other side of the transaction. Banks often will not lend to those who have filed a Chapter 7 case, at least on terms that don't punish the former debtor for their "transgressions." Bankruptcy itself does not prevent you from refinancing for ten years. A bankruptcy stays on your credit for ten years and thus makes it harder to get a loan, refinance a loan or do anything else that involves checking your credit report. By the way, anyone who promises you to get your bankruptcy removed from your credit report in exchange for a fee is both a liar and a crook that should be avoided and reported to the authorities. Good luck and expect to pay a higher rate than what borrowers with good credit pay.
