Is your bankruptcy case almost over?

Are you getting close to the end of your bankruptcy? If so, go ahead and contact your attorney to see if you need to do anything. In Chapter 13 cases, you will need to sign a “Request for Discharge” at the end of your case. Generally our Chapter 13 Trustee will send out a notice when it is time to file that document.

For both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13, you have to complete a 2 hour credit counseling class before your case can be discharged. If you are not sure if you did that, check with your attorney. Many people will do that class right after their case is filed.

Remember that some things don’t go away in your bankruptcy. Things like taxes, student loans, and child support orders don’t go away. If you aren’t sure if something is going away, ask your attorney.

Congrats on getting through your bankruptcy and finishing!
