claiming bankruptcy for a second time
November 15th, 2012 by Questions
How many times can I declare bankruptcy? I declared bankruptcy in Ontario approximately 6 years ago and now find that I may have to in Saskatchewan. Is it possible?

Legally there is no limit to the number of times a person may file for bankruptcy, but from a practical standpoint, the Court makes each new bankruptcy more expensive and longer than the one before.
A second bankruptcy will run a minimum of 24 months, possibly longer depending on your current situation.
