So...how long does it take...???

[jmcm030111]

Hello all,

We filed CH7 on 3/1/11. Our 341 was on 4/1/11. Report of No Distribution filed 4/4/11.

Pacer shows Date of last filing as 5/31/11 and a current status of "awaiting discharge" with a time in status of 115 days. Our attorney says he sees no problems, and has said "any day now" for about a month and is to the point of no longer answering my requests for updates.
We simply want to put this behind us and get on with rebuilding and moving forward. Waiting simply...well...sucks...

In reading some or the accounts here I can see that discharge has taken some 90 days and others over 180 days after initial filings. So my question is simple...how long should it take? What is a realistic expectation?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Couldn't you call the clerk at the court? I'm expecting that I might have a similar issue. I filed on 04/21, 341 was 05/31, report of no distribution was on 06/02...Pacer status still reads..."Awaiting First Meeting"...that's horrible to see....but I think the courts are behind.....so, come next week when my discharge is due...I think I might call...I'll give them some extra time but not much

Just call the clerk, they are probably running behind. I was lucky, had mine within 4 days, discharged and closed but have seen worse than yours.

If there are no problems, they will probably do it right then.

Good luck!!!

BTW thanks for the congrats.........still waitin on the hamsters tho.........LOL!!!
