    credit card not included in filing with insignificant balance accidentally

    Filed non-consumer BK7 on Friday and on Saturday got bill in mail from oldest (1983) credit card which I did not included in filing because it had a zero balance and I hoped it survived.

    Well, unbeknown to me, my wife had used it at a store about a month ago because she had left her debit card at home.

    The balance is only about $50. I don't want to add it to filing, just want to pay it.
    Is there a problem with me just paying the small balance and forgetting about it.

    I guess that is somewhat preferential treatment to a creditor but considering we are discharging slightly over a million, the $50 is not really fraud?

    You might as well pay it. It will be canceled when the creditor finds out you have filed for bankruptcy anyhow.

      I'd just pay it, too.

        Actually, this card is from a small credit union that does not do pulls on my credit.
        I expect that it may be the one to survive. We have always been perfect pay with them and the balance has been zero for about a year.

        My biggest concern was committing some type of semi-fraud.
