Hi All!
My wife will be starting a new job at the beginning of May. The job includes a $7500 signing bonus.
We have only one vehicle at the moment. It was purchased 6 months ago and has little to no equity.
We have a family of 5 and really need two cars. If we used the bonus to purchase a car outright would it be safe
during our chapter 7 or would they make us sell it?
We had a car repo'd 6 months ago....we are behind on all credit card payments also. I do not believe we would
be able to finance a second car at this point.
We do not need the house exemption. Our house is current but it's worth much less than we owe and will be
letting it go in the chapter 7.
We plan on filing Ch 7 at the end of the year....we will need to wait until the signing bonus is past the 6
month timeline to make sure we pass the means test.
