    Finding a Job after i file my petition

    Here is my situation. I am on Unemployment right now. I live in New York. Tomorrow i will be filing my petition. Right now i am actively looking for a job. What happens if i find a job and start receiving a paycheck before my 341 meeting?

    Hi deerawn,

    The wisdom of the forum is, if asked during the 341, be honest. If not asked, don't tell (sounds vaguely familiar)

    At any rate, if you didn't know of any job offer at the time of filing, getting a job would be good fortune, not fraud.

    Good luck w/ your BK and job hunting,

      During the 28 341's I attended in my district in preparation for mine, my soon-to-be-trustee asked everyone "has your income or employment changed since you filed?". Some trustees always ask this, some don't. As Tom said, do not volunteer information unless specifically asked and keep your answers as monosyllabic as possible...there's no gray area, either yes or no. Also agree with Tom in that if you found a job post filing without prior knowledge, that would be good fortune.

      Good luck.
