Question:

 

I filed my first bankruptcy in April 2008 and expect to get discharged on January 2009. I graduated in January 2002. When I applied for the bankruptcy I was asked to sign a statement stating that my studentloan would not include in the bankruptcy because I graduated less than ten years ago. Now that the law has passed for seven instead of ten years, can my student loan be include in the bankruptcy, even when I filed the bankruptcy the law has not passed for the seven years exeption?

Answer:

 

You are correct in that the amendments have very recently become law - July 7, 2007. We are presently reviewing the legislation to see how it relates to debtors in your current situation. There is a hardship clause that would allow you to make an application after the fact if the law doesn't encompass a discharge for your present situation. If you are bankrupt with our firm, you will likely receive further clarification in the near future.
