Q: I have several unsecured debts, will it be a problem if I payoff a 2 debts 6 months prior to filing Ch 7?

I have 2 lawsuits which is the reason why I want to payoff those 2 debts because I cannot file Ch. 7 till June of 2021.

Because I will start to pay full alimony to my ex-wife starting December 1st 2020 which will bring net income to almost zero, that is why in June 2021 I will file Ch.7.

Q: I filed a Pro Se Ch. 7 in 2015. Can I contest the court to have my student loans discharged 5 years after the fact?

I was unemployed for about 9 months in 2015. Which resulted in me filing Ch. 7. I just learned I could have filed a separate motion to have my loans discharged possibly. Can I do that now if I can prove that I lived in poverty from 2015 to 2017 and was unable to repay the loans.
