Evening all. I've been scouring google for any and all information I can find on Chapter 7 (looking to file pro se) but am worried about one thing.
12 months ago I was laid off from my place of employment, but received a severance package that lasted 3 months. At the end of those three months I was unable to acquire employment, so I had to move back home out of state. I was living with my (then) girlfriend, and she too had to move back to her home, in a different state. She did not have any assets, so I gave her a gift of $2500 so she might get an equal chance at keeping her car.
Since then, I have lost my car (it was a lease, returned it once I couldn't pay, which was 4 months ago), and have about 8k in debt to the car company, and 4k to a separate credit card company.
When I file, will this "large" gift cause any problems for me?
Also, I have to use the prior state rules (lived there for four years, have been in California for the past 8 months), which happens to be Nevada, anyone know of a wildcard exemption off the top of their heads? I see some pages saying $1000, others saying absolutely no wildcard in Nevada.
Thank you for any help.
