I am awaiting discharge - no distribution 60 day waiting period. My dad had a stroke a few weeks ago & is now on Hospice. He will not be driving anymore and wants to give me his truck. Should I have him wait until my discharge or would there be any issues with him putting it in my name with him having a terminal diagnosis. I don't want any problems. it's an older truck and not worth that much. The trustee told us we had to report an inheritance within 6 months of our discharge, so didn't know how this would come into play since he is giving it to me now. Everything else will be going to my mom.

Well, if he died before giving it to you, it would definitely be fair game to the trustee. But, a gift from a living person is different. Ask your attorney.Last edited by LadyInTheRed; 06-13-2014, 07:15 AM.LadyInTheRed is in the black!

Plus, it's not 6 months from discharge.
It's {an inheritence} must be reported within 180 days of the filing date.Comment
