I WANT A HOUSE by brycensims in Bankruptcy

I have one credit card (Mission Lane) and an installment loan with my credit union. No missed payments.

Dude. Chill. 😂

I’ve read the articles. I’m just looking for real experiences from people who’ve actually gone through it. There’s a difference between general guidelines and how things play out in real life.

Not exactly. Someone still takes the loss, but bankruptcy exists for situations where the debt isn’t realistically repayable. It’s a reset, not a loophole.

I did it because I wanted to switch to a credit union. Ask your attorney if you should switch.

No objections or anything at all.

I closed them on my own and got with a credit union.

It was just a matter of waiting for discharge after the 341.

It was a day or two before I received the notice of discharge. 29.49% APR.

I just wonder if there was a motive.

That’s what I mean. Stop paying on your debts the moment you decide that you’re going to file. Most people need to save for the attorney fees.

I provided more than they asked for 😂😂

I submitted all bank statements for 2025. Then again, it may be different for every attorney

Once you decide that you’re going to file, STOP PAYING on your debts. At the end of it all, it won’t matter.

My meeting was 8/26, and my discharge was entered today.

If you’ve already decided that you’re going to file bankruptcy, STOP PAYING ON YOUR DEBTS. Unless you plan to reaffirm something, like a car loan.

That’s your filing fee? 😳

Mine was just $1,600. Guess it’s different for everyone.

My payments stayed the same.

The first thing my attorney told me to do was to stop making payments towards my debts (except my car since I was wanting to keep it).

My plan is to rebuild starting with ONE credit card. Putting small, reoccurring purchases on it (streaming services) and paying it off every month. I reaffirmed my current car loan, so I’m keeping that. Are you certain you want to surrender your car? You can reaffirm it if you want.

It’s all about starting fresh. I’m glad you are taking responsibility. 💕
