    Just filed, nervous

    I am wondering what is worse, the time from filing to the 341 meeting or the 60 days after the meeting.....
    We(husband and I) filed on 6/9.....While the clerk was reviewing the forms my legs were like jelly I was soooo nervous....dh was like nothing....I prepared all the papers and was sure (still am) something was amiss....but everything at the time of filing was ok...silly me I even had extra papers ....a form 16B (caption) in front of every schedule LOL...she didn't need those and threw them away.....ok I even asked if the matrix was ok and she said yes...so now I wait......
    Hubby is working alot of OT right now .. couldn't that work against us.....? In schedule I, I DID include OT for him but he is working more than that now since the opportunity is presenting now and he was told after 7/5 they would reduce OT for the remainder of the year.....oh well if they ask anything some of the extra ot is going for dental needs and some even to pay the remainder of the filing fee (I paid 99.00 and the 200.00 remainder in less than 30 days)
    oh, I want to thank you all for all your advice, I have been reading the boards and educating myself, let me tell you, filing pro se is not for the faint of heart LOL, actually I got the idea from this forum......I was looking for attorneys and found those sites that prepare the papers for like 150-200 dollars and thought wow that is better than an attorney....and then somehow I came to this site and found the pro se thread and thought...hmmm could that be possible? I can't believe I did it...countless hours of researching, reading wow and now is done....
    We filed a chapter 7 under median by alot, have a home and car exempt under the Federal exemptions (house equity is only 3K) and car is around 6K equity but had plenty of exemptions to cover it since the car exemption was not enough...anyway reaffirming all....we'll see how that goes....
    Wish us luck!!! I am not doing pacer beause I already am obsessive compulsive and don't need extra stress....may give a call to the trustee in a couple of weeks maybe and ask if everything is ok...or is that a no-no?
    Ok, if this post seems kind of crazy sorry I am nervous....the worst part is waiting and wondering if they will question this or that or whatever else?
    UGH!!!
    Waiting nervously in Houston.

    I know its tough, but you have got to relax. Its like a final exam. Whats done is done. Cant change it now. No sense in worrying about it. Your probably gonna be one of the 99%+ of people who do this problem free. If you have nothing to hide, there is nothing for them to find. No worried mate!

      Exactly what Brazzy wrote. It is what it is at this point. More than likely... absolutely nothing will come of anything and you'll breeze through your discharge without any issues or any questions!

      I personally know that it can be nerve racking, but it's really not worrying over. Certainly the 341 Meeting is nothing to fear if you're honest! There are standard questions that they ask (about 10 of them) and you can get a preview of them in my other thread here.

          No calls? Are you lonely? Bored? Americredit has been calling me about somebody else's debt. Somebody I don't know at all! (No calls from my own creditors about any of my own debt.) The next time Americredit calls me, would you like me to give them your number? Messing with other people's creditors is fun. For a while.

            Lol, no thanks, I don't want Americredit's phone number
            got some "unknown" number calling but I ain't answering....
            Does anyone know how long does it take to get the 341
            meeting notice? It's been one week (and one day) since we filed and nothing yet....
            I did get an advertisement for a post bankruptcy education course,
            they sure found out fast!

              This is totally normal! i went through the exact same thing. when they first accepted my paperwork i felt proud knowing it passed muster, but within an hour or two i was a nervous wreck. I think its more stressful before your 341. in my case, after the 341 i know everything went smooth, so now its just smooth sailing. Then again i have a no asset case, so i dont know. I am sure its going to be fine. It sounds like you put a lot of work into making your stuff was correct ( I can tell by your nervousness about each thing, i am the same). if your anything like me, i belive you will feel better after the 341 meeting.
