Can I roll over my American Airlines pension to an IRA?

Helene Thaissa W. Bergman
Answered by attorney Helene Thaissa W. Bergman (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at The Bergman Law Firm
Don't even think about that unless you put it somewhere where the funds are safe, and you can never take them out and use for living expenses. Everyone that I know that has taken out their pension and thinks they can do better with the money lose all of it. Putting the funds into some type of irrevocable trust is the only recommendation that I would give you.  Protected from you, your creditors and anyone else who might see you as a target. As in a new spouse.

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

Questions about keeping a car are the most common concerns that people have when considering bankruptcy. Cars that are financed are seldom at risk of being taken away by the bankruptcy process (unless the equity in the vehicle is very large), but the car can be repoed by the finance company if you don't make the payment and if you don't reaffirm the vehicle loan. In Nevada, your vehicle would need to have equity of more then $15K to be at risk.

Take the financial management class and apply to reopen your bankruptcy case in order to file the certificate showing that you completed the class. The fee to the court to reopen your case is $260 but this is one of those lessons you have had to learn the hard way.
