It really depends on whether the debt is yours solely, or are your parents cosigners, named on any credit cards, or any other arrangement where your parents agree to guarantee the loan. A loan is a contract where one party agrees to give money at a certain time, and the other party agrees to repay the loan at a later date.  The contract can only involve the parties in interest.  As such, a creditor can only collect from the party or parties that acquire the debt.  If your parents were involved in the acquiring of the debt, then they may be held responsible for repayment.  If your parents did not help in acquiring the debt then they should not be help responsible.   This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature.  No attorney-client relationship exists or is formed by this information.  Furthermore, this does not represent the views or opinions of LexisNexis or its affiliated companies.

A debt resulting from a divorce decree cannot be discharged in Chapter 7. However, in some circumstances that debt can be discharged in Chapter 13.

If I file chapter 7, will my husband be responsible for my debts. Or is divorce a better option?

If your husband is a co-signor he will be responsible. If the debt is solely in your name he can not be held liable.
