Bankruptcy Discharge

I went to a court hearing in March 2006. It was adjourned and the trustee was to book another court date in August 2006. I have not heard a thing since. I went bankrupt in 2003. My income is 800.00 per month and I have no means to afford a lawyer to push this case further and Revenue Canada is the only creditor opposing my discharge . Would you have any suggestions?

From the sounds of it it means there were certain duties you were required to perform to be discharge that were not. Although, it could also be a mistake. Did you receive a copy of your discharge? Do you still have those documents (as a note for anyone reading this if you file bankrutpcy you should keep these documents indefinately)?

If you don’t still have these documents you may be able to order copies of the bankrutpcy documents from court, but this is only if there was a court file opened. These documents will either show you that you were discharged or show you what needs to be done in order to be discharged.

As for the ramifications of being an undischarged bankrupty, usually it causes you difficulty when borrowing money, it also means the original debts you may still be responsible for.
