When you file bankruptcy you can claim up to a certain amount of assets as exempt. Consult with an attorney as to the specific kind of exemption that is available to you.

Can an immigrant apply for Chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Tony Mankus (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Mankus & Marchan, Ltd.
A non-resident alien may file Chapter 7 bankruptcy if he has a valid SSA number and has reported his income on a 1040 tax return for the last two years. He also needs a valid photo ID, such as a Driver's License, for the creditors' meeting. The filing of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy should not, by itself, be an impediment to gaining legal status, although there are many other requirements, of course.

What happens to past due Home Owners Association dues after bankruptcy?

There is a special provision in the Bankruptcy Code about HOAs. The post-filing, pre-foreclosure dues are owed in spite of bankruptcy. That would pertain to a short sale as well.
