Can I file 7 and husband file 13?

[Kkole425]

Just wondering if there is any benefit of me going with a chap. 7 for my sole debts and my husband doing chapter 13 for his debts and business debts? Very few of our accounts hold both of our names. The house is in his name only and so on. I do hold the clear title to my kids cars (2) and I get a little child support $360. a month and SSI for my kids $1700.00. Would this help me hold on to any of this money that goes to my kids or no? This is proably a stupid post and I am just looking for ways to make the payback less. Thanks for your time.

Your ability to file a 7 or a 13 will depend on your household income and expenses. Even if possible I can see no benefit in trying to do 2 seperate cases, talk about complicating matters!
