Am I still liable for my mortgage after chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Giovanni Orantes
Answered by attorney Giovanni Orantes (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Orantes Law Firm
Assuming that your house is in California, even if you reaffirmed your mortgage, if the house is your principal residence and the mortgage is the original mortgage on the house, the lender may still not be able to pursue you for any deficiency. If you refinanced the mortgage and reaffirmed it and your lawyer signed it, it does not need the Courts approval to be binding on you, which means that the lender can pursue you for a deficiency, if any. The lender is not obligated to go after you for the deficiency though. If it chooses not to try to recover the deficiency from you, then it is likely to send you a 1099 tax form to show that they canceled your debt. Debt cancellation is taxable by the IRS unless you can prove that you qualify under an exception bankruptcy is an exception, but since this is post-bankruptcy, you may need to show that you are insolvent now, for example. You should consult your tax professional about debt cancellation. There are many issues involved in your situation. So, the best approach is to try to contact an attorney who offers an initial free consultation, such as myself, to go over all your facts in person.

If I took a student loan for my daughter in my name only, is it dischargeable in bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Christopher J. Kane
Bankruptcy lawyer at Christopher J. Kane, P.C.
No, the student loan obligation will not be discharged in bankruptcy, unless you can prove "undue harship". That is an extremely tough thing to prove.
