Today I learned the position I have held for the last 8 years is being eliminated within the next 2 months.
Of course, I can downgrade and stay working. That privilege comes with a 7% pay cut, and 12 hour days.
I am 63, and have been at the same company for 38 years. The 'new' position is physically demanding, and I have doubts I can hang in with it.
I am seriously considering pulling the plug, and resigning. Retiring, actually. I would have an income of 2250/mo.
I would not be able to afford any feasible repayment plan.
Would I be able to convert to Ch 7 under these circumstances, even though I did not originally pass the means test?
I do still have some tax debt, and mortgage arrears that are non-dischargeable. There are also 2 vehicles under contract which can go back to their actual owners. I may decide to surrender the house as well.
In my case tax debts are under 10k, 6k without the mortgage. I would surrender the vehicles. Everything else is unsecured.
