For a student loan, is it legal for a creditor to call a neighbor?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Thomas Anthony Vogele (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Thomas Vogele & Associates, APC
Generally speaking a creditor may contact a third person such as a neighbor in an attempt to locate you. However, they may not discuss the specifics of their claim with a neighbor as you describe. If the creditor has been unable to locate you to contact you about the debt, they may use reasonable means to ascertain your location.

Why does my credit card company sent me a W9 form to fill out since my chapter 13 has just been discharged?

Richard B. Jacobson
Answered by attorney Richard B. Jacobson (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Richard B. Jacobson Associates, LLC
They probably should not send you the form. In a bankruptcy, the discharge of debts generally does not have any tax consequence. Outside of bankruptcy, there are some circumstances where forgiveness of a debt could lead to taxable income, and that is when the bank should be sending out such documents. But there may be some other reason. Why not call the bank and find out why they sent the paper to you?

What can we do if the seller has filed for Chapter 11? How?

The seller will need court permission to sell. You should have an attorney representing you to make sure that the sale is allowed to go forward.
