Chandler Bankruptcy Tips - Do I Pay My Credit Cards or File Bankruptcy?
I get that question more often in January than any other time of year. And in large part because we’ve just gone through a big holiday, a holiday that typically a lot of Americans spend quite a bit on.

Chandler Bankruptcy Tips - Can I Keep My Tax Refund and Still File Bankruptcy?
A lot of people don’t know this. But the bankruptcy court and the U.S. trustee who acts as a referee in your bankruptcy is actually paid by tax refunds. And where do they get those tax refunds? They get them from people who file.
So if you anticipate getting a tax refund, you may want to wait and obtain your tax refund and spend it on things you need. Maybe you need to make a car payment. So go ahead and make that car payment.

Chandler Bankruptcy Tips - Do I Have to File with My Spouse?
Here in Arizona, we’re a community property state. Unlike a lot of other states is that, when husband and wife are married, their incomes become joint.
Also, we’re entitled to half of each other’s debt. So when I get married and I open that credit card up and I start charging on it, even though he’s not using any of the things that I’m buying on the credit card or maybe they’re not even for our house or anything that we share together, he still owns half that debt.

Now, if you have a balance on that credit card, that balance will be discharged. However, the credit card will also go away. And for a lot of people, that’s a scary place to be. They don’t really want to let go of, say, that one trusty credit card that they use for those unexpected gas trips and emergency this or that. And that really worries them.
