Precisely what Debts are cleared away if I
go Bankrupt?
The simple answer is that when it comes to Bankruptcy most debts are wiped, and I have included a table below for you to look at.
But, simply put some of the exceptions are
Centrelink Debts, Child Support, Court fines (like speeding fines) as well as
any debts arising from uninsured Motor-vehicle claims and educational debts
such as HECS or FEE-HELP. These debts are not eliminated when you file for bankruptcy.
What about Secured Debts?
A secured debt is a car loan or a home
loan; it is a debt that has some actual security connected to it. So for
instance if you buy a new car for $40,000 dollars the security for this car is
the actual car itself.
So, can my secured debts be cleared away if
I file for bankruptcy?
Yes. If you have a car loan for $40,000 you
can have that debt eliminated if you simply hand back the car. So the lesson is
that you cannot have your cake and eat it too (so to speak), so yes all of your
secured debts can be wiped but the asset needs to be sold or returned. This is
just one component that, when it comes to Bankruptcy, it is vital to get
professional assistance - like that offered at Fresh Start Solutions Darwin.
What about my Tax Debts with the ATO can
they be eliminated If I go bankrupt?
Yes they can, both business and personal
debts owing to the ATO can be erased with bankruptcy. If you have a business
with any type of debts find some advice because it is not always so basic. Feel
