Can I file for a chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Sanaz Sarah Bereliani (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Bereliani Law Firm, PC
I would suggest simply sending them your discharge letter and 341(a) letter that was originally sent to you (with all your case info on it). Based on In Re Beasley, even if a creditor was left off due to clerical error, you are still protected because a bankruptcy filing is a public filing so it's as if the whole world is on notice.

Can I include a unemployment benefit overpayment when filing for bankruptcy?

You have no choice, you must list all of your debts in your bankruptcy. While over payment of unemployment benefits can typically be eliminated through bankruptcy, if there is a tax lien, you have been exceptionally unlucky, as liens of this nature cannot be eliminated through bankruptcy. However, if the equity in your property is less than the amount of the lien, the lien may be lowered to the total value of your property. Sorry, state exemptions dont apply!

Talk to a real estate mortgage broker. There are different programs out there. The general thinking is that a wait of either 2 or 3 years after bankruptcy is the norm but a mortgage broker would know best what programs are out there at any given time and the parameters needed to qualify.
