BK and part time employment

[helpme]

Will the fact that I only work part time, although I could probably make more money working full time at fewer $ per hour prevent me from being able to file bk? I shouldn't work full time for health reasons.

No wether u work full time or part time dosen't prevent u at all it all depends on what chapter ur filing.

As long as your doctor has documentation of this, no problem.

What kind of illness prevents you from working full time, but part time is fine?
How about working two jobs part time, then it won't affect your health.

I'm a nurse and can think of a fair number of illnesses that fit this picture - multiple scelerosis, congestive heart failure, fibromyalgia, and kidney disease to name a few. Those folks are lucky to work half-time - to work more will cause the body to tire and significantly worsen their symptoms to the point they can't work at all.

And it's obvious that you are in dire need of a compassion transplant, whoever you are. You don't care anything about this person's or anyone else's problems here - you just want to get your emotional digs in but at no risk to yourself. That's pathetic because you make yourself feel powerful by belittling others - you're a sad little ineffective bully hiding behind the anonymity of the net. Off you go to my 'ignore' list....bye bye. And I've reported you to the mods as well.

Well! Thanks for sticking up for me! I am sure you can understand that there are some things I am not willing to discuss in this online format, obviously money isn't one of them!

helpme...I was working full time prior to my husband and I filing for BK but my hours were cut, etc...so I was working part time when we filed. My attorney said it might be an issue because of an expense we were claiming(private school tuition - long story - another time) but the trustee didnt even bring it up...I cant imagine it will be a problem and just for the record you dont owe anyone an explanation why you are working part time instead of full time.....we are here to help you get through your BK...

The only time this would raise a flag is when a debtor chooses under employment on purpose just to get in under the means test. If you quit a good paying job just to file the courts don't like that unless you have an explanation. In your case with health issues and no recent history of full time employment it shouldn't be a problem.

I saw a few of yours and fedlers posts, witty, and a tad harsh but to the point. This post about working PT two jobs isn't real smart or friendly though?

I do not work outside the home at all and it was not an issue. I stay at home with our children. Our kids had to go to our 341 hearing so the trustee saw how young they were. He was pleased I was staying home with them.

Remember, most trustees are normal caring people. If you have a medical reason I'm sure you'll be just fine!

Helpme should be fine, but the first part of your statement is questionable. Just ask Minny.

I said MOST, not all. Minny's would fall into the "not-most" catagory. I'm sure Minny would still admit that she just got one of the bad ones and most are nice people for the most part.

I know


"Direct Merchants Bank ~ $1,5000"


Is this correct? DMB gave you 15k just after a bankruptcy? I thought 1500 would be correct, but 15k? Seems like a lot for a recent bankruptcy.
