    Discharged and Case Closed - Quietly Happy!!

    Hey folks I been lurking for the past month or so mainly because of reading a post from someone saying that USTs sometimes visit these forums and find out some goodies on filers! I certainly did not want to make my case any more complicated or visible. As some may know, I filed C7 back in June. I have a paid off vehicle worth maybe about $12K ($3700 exemption in AK), being in Alaska we just received a record $3,200 dividend from the state from oil revenues, and I have a $5,600 IRS refund coming to me in about a week. I didn't hide anything from the UST. All of this info was disclosed in my case, but for whatever reason the UST didn't seem to ask about redeeming my car and I went under the "don't ask, don't tell" policy and just waited for them to ask me to redeem or give it up. Never happened! The dividend and "possible" refund were also brought up during the 341 and mentioned in my financials. The UST Assistant said are you expecting a refund? I said maybe. And that was it!! Again, don't ask don't tell.

    I have been quietly lurking the BKForums, checking Pacer daily, and crossing my fingers and praying that: 1) I don't have to redeem my car, 2) I don't have to give up the extra $$ coming my way, and 3) that my case gets discharged and closed without any major flags. Yesterday, I almost fell out of my chair when I seen "case closed" on Pacer!!!! Yahooo!!!!

    Is it really over?? I am really enjoying not using credit cards and not owing money at the end of the week. It is adjustment but a good one!

        Congratulations. I was just discharged on 10/6 too! Its a bit scary. I still feel a bit uneasy about my car just because I always get weird questions from the finance company when I call (how many miles, etc). But I'm moving on and I'm pretty sure that if I keep paying them then they don't want my car.

                I just cannot get over the joy that Hamster thing does. Congrats to all who now have a new start. Times are getting tough and we now have a big start and challenge. Be careful, and please start saving commodities for your future. I have been around for some time, (and am feeling it) but I know of what happened in the past history of our Country. With all God's love to our OP and all here, enjoy our Victory (Hamsters) as I cannot go away without a smile on my face. GBWY 'Hub and Mrs.

                  Wonderful news...and to actually have a little bit of a cushion at the start of your new life makes it that much sweeter. Congratulations on your restraint, and all the best to you!

                    Why not??

                    And since you mention it, what ever happened to that great idea someone had about having the hamster dance right on PACER - or at least a new PACER code: Status = HDANCE? (Actually, I think that last one was my idea) Whom do we see about this?

                          Thanks for the help and the congrats!!! I really could NOT have done this without all the advice from BKforum!!

                          Anytime I had a question, usually the answer was no further than the search function. Although, I was fully expecting to be required to do a 722 loan to redeem my truck or turn it over to the court with about $7K in un-exempt value. And then they (UST office) knew I was filing taxes in Oct and expecting a nice refund. I feel soooooo extremely lucky and fortunate!!! I'm still in dis-belief that it's finally over!! OMG what a nerve racker this stuff is to one's senses.

                          And, thanks Cats,,,those hampsters made my daughter and I have a good laugh!!
