    Well, it's too late to worry about that now, so proceed forward. Once you have filed, you have filed, and nothing that you do will change that. Honesty solves all problems.........

      Thanks, and that's the step I've taken from the beginning. Being honest. As long as I'm honest and truthful I can't go wrong. Just really unnerved about the whole process, guess it's somewhat expected.

        jb has given excellent direction as always.

        remember this, the burden is on THEM...fraud is not always easily proven, not always cut and dry:


        if the court does move forward, most fraud cases, the defendant won’t likely testify that their intent was fraudulent. thus, the court may have to look to the following as evidence of fraudulent intent:

        " A history or continuing pattern of fraud when dealing with creditors
        Transfers made within one year of a lawsuit, bankruptcy hearing, or debt collection proceeding
        Transfers of all or a majority of the debtor’s assets
        Situations where the debtor transferred property to another person yet retained the possession, use, or benefit of the property
        Transfers made to a spouse, other close relatives, or friends
        Shifting of property to a corporation or other business that is wholly owned by the debtor
        Transfers that are unequal in nature and result in lopsided benefits in favor of the debtor "

        all of these different circumstances may provide evidence in support of a fraudulent intent. while they may not necessarily prove fraudulent transfer in themselves, they can definitely be damaging for the debtor’s defense. this is especially true if it can be shown that the debtor engaged in a number of the acts listed above.

        i think they look more for consistency as opposed to a one time event.

              That's what I was hoping for. Just didn't want to run out of options. Glad my lawyer is fixing my numbers and resubmitting as 13.

                it's enough stress going through this all, usually there are a few and sometimes more than a few "bumps" along the way...but it all comes out in the wash and it will work out.

                  Yeah, you're right. I think my lack of knowledge (such as the ability for the lawyer to amend my numbers and fix mistakes) really is making me suffer. I was scared that her fixing the mistakes was construed as fraud but I know that if I remain honest and fix the problems I can only go one place. To the finish line
