341 meeting letter received- A ? for pro se filers

JustBroke, I did speak to the Case Manager, she said to come in with the signature page(signed), I never included the page when I filed. Thanks again on the mailing information. I wanted to be clear how certain documents needed to served.

You don't need "proof of service" when mailing things -- other than official "papers" required to be filed with the court -- to the Trustee. I might, however, send them "certified mail" with "return receipt requested" so that you have proof of delivery. As far as the SOI, you should ask a "procedural" question from your Case Manager in the Clerk's office. You may be required to re-serve it upon all the affected creditors. In that case, you would be best served by having your non-debtor husband serve the SOI on the creditors (and the Trustee).

I was not sure if I needed to do a proof of service when sending my documents to the Trustee. Just to clarify..it is ok for me to just mail my own tax documents to the Trustee. I did get a notice today from the court that I did not sign my SOI form. LOL, just when I thought I go through with my paperwork ok..I'll go to court and ammend it tomorrow. I'm glad it was just that.

Personally, I would call the Trustee's office and ask what documentation that they want prior to the 341 Meeting. Most Trustee's have a website with details on just what they want. I would visit the website and still make that phone call. It could save you from a "continued" 341 Meeting!

Unless you're in a community property state, I think that your husband can serve papers since he is not the debtor. If you're serving something more formal like a "complaint" (adversary proceeding), I "might" have someone else serve the papers. If you're just mailing off your forms to the Trustee, that's not "service of process". The only things that you need served on creditors are things that go on the Docket (PACER).

I received my letter for my 341 meeting date and Trustee name. My meeting is July 7th. Does the Trustee send a letter requesting my tax return or any other documents or do I just send them in. Also, my husband did not file bankruptcy with me can he send the Proof of Service by mail for me to deliver documents or is that not allowed.
