What Types of Debt do you Handle?

What types of debt do you handle?What types of debt do you handle?

We can help with most kinds of debt, although bankruptcy and consumer proposals are intended for unsecured debts, such as credit cards, overdraft, bank loans, and lines of credit.   Secured debts such as mortgages and car loans are generally not covered by these processes, although they are included in the paperwork. If you have secured debt which has become difficult to pay, discuss your options with a Trustee.

How will bankruptcy or a consumer proposal affect my credit rating?

Credit ratingHow will bankruptcy or a consumer proposal affect my credit rating?

As a general rule, any time you don’t pay your debts in full, your credit rating will be affected. Accounts which are in collections are listed as R9, the same as when that account is listed in a bankruptcy or consumer proposal. Once a consumer proposal is complete, it will change to R7, and remain for three years. A bankruptcy will remain at R9 for seven years. This does not mean that a person cannot get credit. Rather, it is a way to notify lenders of the increased risk in lending to someone with a past history of insolvency or inability to pay.

How do I pay the Trustee’s fees?

How do I pay the Trustee’s fees?

For most bankruptcies, the trustee will charge a standard fee, in the range of $1,800 to $2,000, for the basic administration, and most trustees allow those payments to be made over time. If Surplus Income payments are required, they will be credited against those fees.  Funds received or due in respect of asset realization are generally not credited against the administrative fees.

The Trustee may also charge an additional amount if an opposition to your discharge is to be filed because you have been bankrupt three or more times, if you have not completed your duties under the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act, or if the trustee has concerns about the circumstances of your bankruptcy.
