Can I still petition someone for immigration purposes if I file for bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Tony E. Carballo (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Carballo Law Offices
Yes.... bankruptcy has nothing to do with immigration and vice versa. You might have to demonstrate ability to support the person you want to bring to the U.S., but that has nothing to do with discharging your debts in bankruptcy. The government is not interested in whether you pay the banks and private creditors. The government is interested in making sure a person is not allowed to immigrate if the person is likely to end up being supported by the government (such a person is known as a "public charge"). You will probably have to prepare and sign an Affidavit of Support and submit supporting documentation agreeing to support the person for whom you are filing the petition. That will happen before the visa is issued (in some cases many years later) and not when you file the petition (I-130) now.

How do I keep my car if I was dischargd from a chapter 7 bankruptcy?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Christine Ann Kingston (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Law Offices of Christine A. Wilton
When you filed bankruptcy, it looks like you stated your intent was to reaffirm the debt owed on your car. Generally, what happens next is that creditor on the vehicle will send you a reaffirmation agreement to complete and return to them. It looks like either the creditor dropped the ball, or you failed to complete the paperwork and send it back to them. Once the creditor receives your reaffirmation agreement they will file it with the court and set a hearing date, if you did not have an attorney represent you in completing the agreement. You would then need to appear at the reaffirmation hearing and tell the judge whether this agreement is in your best interest. You mentioned there is a co-signor on this debt. If the co-signor did not file bankruptcy, they are still legally liable for that debt as their legal obligation has not been discharged. You need to continue making the payments on the car if you intend to keep it. Since you've already obtained your discharge, a reaffirmation agreement is likely a moot point and a non-issue. You need to work this out directly with the lender.

Can one spouse file for bankruptcy and the other not affected?

Marjorie A. Guymon
Answered by attorney Marjorie A. Guymon
Bankruptcy lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
You may file separately without a spouse. However, your spouse may be affected. I suggest seeking legal advice.
