Wife and I have $120,000 of US Credit Card debt on 9 cards (used to be more). We now live in Canada, are current on all 9 cards, but can no longer keep pace with the minimums and apparently need to either A) quit paying or file US BK ? Which would you recommend? I'm told that Canada will not count...

Today we met with our attorney to sign our paperwork, he is submitting our Ch 7 this week. One question that he had a hard time answering was about a credit card from Chase. I was an authorized user on my parents card up until about a month ago when they took me off on the advice of our attorney....

one of us believes we should never have it again....and one of us KNOWS we need to get a mortgage again (guess which one I AM!! LOL!!)....

When I filed I had three 0 balance credit lines. One of them, an LOC with my new bank was closed 10 days after the filing. The other two, however, an AA credit card (store card like) and a Dell Financial Services card are still open and active. It's been about a month and a half since filing. Any...

Hello,

I live in CA. I have $45K in CC and my wife has $15K. I'm considering filing for Chapter 7 on my own and continuing paying for her CC debt. Would my CC companies come after her even though I'm the only one in the accounts?

Ok, so wife and I are filing CH13 in just over a month. We stopped paying on our CCs in November.

Calls started coming right around Christmas time (fun stuff). Normal collection calls. Nothing to write home about.

After talking to couple BK attorneys, looks like I am not passing means test for chapter 7 due to high income. The only option is chapter 13.
