Do I have to list student loans on Chapter 7?

Answered by attorney Max L Rosenberg
Bankruptcy lawyer at Rosenberg Hite, LLC
Yes , you do. And please hire an experienced bankruptcy attorney. Bankruptcy is nothing to dabble in. Its similar to performing your own appendectomy.

How do I convert to chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Giovanni Orantes
Answered by attorney Giovanni Orantes (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Orantes Law Firm
If there is a foreclosure sale scheduled and you think it will take place, there would need to be an order granting relief from the automatic stay that protects you from foreclosure for the sale to happen. That order may have been entered if you stopped paying the mortgage on time and the bank filed a motion asking for the stay to be lifted. If that is the case, converting to a chapter 7 case will not protect you. That is, it will not impose a new stay. The only chance you have under the facts you disclose is to file a request for dismissal and submit the loan modification application as far in advance of March 5th as possible and that may stop the sale. ... One other option, which I cannot disclose here, would only be available after dismissal, but you would need to speak to an attorney to explore options. Review your Rights and Responsibilities Agreement Between Chapter 13 Debtors and Their Attorneys (the "RAR Agreement") to see if your attorney can charge you for that or if it is already included in the flat fee; otherwise, a small fee may be warranted at most as the request for dismissal is quite short.

What can we do to obtain the letter of reconveyance?

Unfortunately, a lien strip of a second mortgage is conditioned upon receiving a discharge in your chapter 13 case. From the time you make your last payment to the time when the discharge is granted by the court could take as much as 90 days. The Trustee needs to do some accounting and file reports with the court before you can submit one last form, I'm assuming that you already completed and filed the Financial Management Course certificate and form B23. This answer applies to San Diego, check with your attorney or local jurisdiction as there may be some differences in the timing and procedures.
