How can we help you?

If you have unsecured debt of under $10,000 and live in the Province of Ontario filing bankruptcy may not be the best option for you. We suggest you contact the Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy at 416-973-6441 to discuss your options, or you can visit their website here.

Agreement*

I understand that Bankruptcy-Canada.ca does not provide debt relief services directly and agree to securely share this information with a local Licensed Insolvency Trustee (LIT) for a free, confidential consultation.

Common Law Liability

If I live with a boyfriend (not married) and he declares bankruptcy, am I liable for any of his debts, and will any of my savings and/or property be taken to pay his debts?
Thanks

If your boyfriend or spouse goes bankrupt, you are not liable for their debts, unless you have co-signed for them.

Every situation is different, so we recommended that you contact a licensed bankruptcy trustee in Canada to review your specific situation.
