I just had my consult and most likely do not qualify for a ch. 7. So--it'll be Ch. 13 for me most likely.
A little background... My husband and I both work, make good money and after living on cc's for over 2 years when the economy tanked and trying to get back on track for the last year and a half, we just can't keep up with minimum payments after late fees and OTL fees get tacked on every month. The calls and stress is racking up....I have a couple questions before filing and since I don't know whether to pay the cc's this month or the attorney, I thought I'd start here.
#1 - I have a vacation planned for mid-September (free air and cheap hotel--quick getaway). How will this be looked at?
#2 - We need another car. Our second car has 225,000 miles and is 12 years old. We live in a suburban are and we both need a vehicle to get us to/from work. The only thing we can buy right now anyway is on those buy here, pay here lots. If I bought a car right now, how long before we could file without this being an issue?
Thanks for any advice.
