Monthly Expenses

Sunday, August 31st, 2008

What if my monthly expenses are more than the standards? For example, being a single person the standard is $1836 per month. At my current income I would have a surplus income each month, but my expenses are more than $1836.

some questions

Sunday, August 31st, 2008

My son perhaps has to file bankruptcy but I need to ask a few questions. He owes bank loans, credit cards and car loan. Do all of these go away with bankruptcy? Can he still work after filing for bankruptcy and does his employer have to know that he has filed for bankruptcy?

thank you

Do I need to bring past credit card statements to the Trustee or just disclose the amount?

Sunday, August 31st, 2008

When applying for bankruptcy, do I have to show all the purchases and usage on my cards prior to filing or do I just bring a current balance print out from the bank teller or bank machine? Will my card usage be scrutinized by either the respondents (creditors) or the trustee?
