Where do I get the paperwork to refuse my inheritance?

Answered by attorney Robert Jason De Groot (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at R. Jason de Groot, P.A.
Why would you want to refuse your inheritance? Your debt has been discharged and creditors cannot get at it. Who is the probate attorney for your mother's estate, and who is the personal representative? You do not have to refuse the inheritance.

If an account is actually included in bankruptcy and not reaffirmed, can they still consider my payments as late?

Retaining a lawyer well-versed in Consumer Law and real estate matters may save you a lot of grief. I would suggest that you first contact the lender which has been entering these mistaken reports. Since the debt was not reaffirmed, they should not be making any adverse notations on your credit report. If you don't have a lawyer, you can write the creditor yourself. Be polite, but be firm, and demand immediate action. Be sure to include all relevant facts, account numbers, bankruptcy case number, etc. At the same time, you can write each of the three major credit reporting agencies (Experian, Trans-Union, and a third), tell them of the improper reporting and ask them to investigate and correct their reports. Check first with the potential new mortgage lender, since its people may have already started this process. I doubt that the correction can be made in the next two weeks, and depending on what your new lender is willing to do, you may need to delay the closing.
