What can I do if I filed a chapter 9 years ago that was discharged and I currently owe $12,000.00 in credit card debt?

I would not recommend bankruptcy for someone with a mere $12K in debt. I would suggest that you consider whether you might be able to settle these debts for a reduced amount. You will need to offer the creditors a lump sum of cash to get a discount and you will need to have gone several months (and be in collection) in order to get the best settlement deals. The downside to doing this is that you will have a tax liablity for the amount of the debt any creditor has forgiven. Although bankruptcy does not require you to have a set dollar amount of debt, any bankruptcy case must be filed in good faith, which means that it would be nearly impossible for you to be able to realistically pay off this debt.

The "Brunner Test" applies to student loan dischargeability in most jurisdictions. Did you meet the Brunner standard and have you exhausted all administrative remedies? You can usually research your judge's opinions on the bankruptcy court website.

What can I do if the creditors did not show up to the meeting?

It is very rare, at least in Arizona, for creditors to appear at a consumer 341 hearing. But, the creditor does have the right to file an objection to the discharge of your debt. It is very important that you deal with this adversary if it is filed.
