You may need to consult with a local attorney on this, but you could first reach out to the Kansas Department of Insurance to see if they could offer guidance.

If you file a voluntary bankruptcy petition, you will be signing Schedules of ALL your assets and debts, under penalty of perjury. So yes, you must "file" on every debt you have at the date you file for bankruptcy relief.
That said, you have the option to reaffirm any otherwise... Read more »
The mortgage is only in my husband s name

answered on Jan 6, 2023
If you are named on the deed, you have a legal interest in the home that the bankruptcy stay will protect.
Even if you are not named on the deed, the fact that you live in the house (assuming you do), then you have at least a possessory interest in the home that is also protected by the... Read more »
Is it best to surrender the car or do a reaffirm agreement?

answered on Oct 8, 2022
You would have the option to 1) surrender and owe nothing further, 2) keep making the monthly payments but not reaffirm, or 3) to keep making the monthly payments and reaffirm. You would likely only want to reaffirm under limited circumstances - mainly only if the vehicle was worth a good bit more... Read more »
I have been made an offer on my home, enough to pay off the mortgage and other BK expenses.

I would wait until he has his green card and is completely through the process before filing bankruptcy.
Only apply to me? Will I get the full stay? Or if it doesn't can I file alone and get it?

answered on Jan 8, 2023
Your bankruptcy lawyer can answer that more accurately than someone on a Q&A site like this. The re-filer needs to ask to have the stay reimposed, but the new filer doesn't. How the court handles it will to a large extent depend on the district you are in and who is your judge.

The next day the truck was gone and we thought the lender took it. Several days later the lender said they did not have the truck and it must be stolen and to report it to the police which we did. The truck has not been located. Now the lender is contacting us. What are our options?

answered on Dec 15, 2022
Without seeing the loan agreement that discusses remedies in the event of theft, perhaps the asker owes the full cost of the vehicle minus payments made.

You’re going to need some in depth research and data to prove that the degree is worthless or that the university is blocking your efforts to find a job. May be a tough row to hoe.
What happens if I stop paying them. Will they take my SSI

answered on Feb 2, 2022
No creditor is allowed to intercept or take your SSI income - so long as the money is not mingled with other monies in a bank account. If you earn some part-time wages and add those into an account that also has your SSI, then your SSI may in danger of being garnished at the bank (frozen and... Read more »

On the few facts you provide, it seems that you got what you enrolled and paid for at KU. I assume that you chose your field of study leading to your degree.
That may change somewhat if you have something from KU, in writing, promising you a better paying job/career than what you already... Read more »
I am 100% Unemployable by the VA.
The taxing authority is claiming the debt is not dischagrable because they sent you a tax warrant 3 years ago before you actually filed for bankruptcy. Per the bankruptcy laws however that doesn't mean anything.

answered on Mar 2, 2020
You file a response in the court where the foreign judgment is attempting to be enforce and show the court where the debts were discharged.

answered on Feb 26, 2020
You can wait it out or you can return it to the bankruptcy trustee.
