I found some creditors I left off when I filed. 341 meeting not until 3/14. Can I just send them a copy of the filing BK notice or do I need to pay the lawyer the $150 to ammend? If I just send it will they still be discharged? I have a Chapter 7 no asset case. These creditors afre medical bills.

I could be wrong, but I believe you have to try and include all creditors in your filing. So, most likely you will have to pay your lawyer to or somehow or other "officially" ammend your petition. -
You should amend your petition even if those debts would be discharged without the amendment. $150 is a small price to pay to not have to worry about convincing creditors later that the debt was discharged. You could wind up in court over the issue. Also, the trustee will ask at your 341 if your petition is accurate and complete. You will have to say no and the trustee will probably insist that you amend it anyway.LadyInTheRed is in the black!

$143,000 in debt discharged for $36,500, including attorneys fees. Money well spent!Comment
