Bankruptcy May Help You Repay Student Loans

Student Loan Repayment

Typically, student loans are not dischargeable in bankruptcy. In rare circumstances, a hardship exception is made, but you shouldn't count on this. Instead, filing bankruptcy for your other debts may be a good option. By reducing your overall debt, you may be better able to pay back student loan debt.

Reduce Your Other Debts

As part of the automatic stay, creditors are not permitted to collect on any loans while a bankruptcy is in progress. We can file a low-percentage Chapter 13 bankruptcy so the student loan collectors cannot try to collect for five years. While the student debt remains, it is possible that in five years, you will be in a better financial situation and can make payments.

If you do not qualify for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, filing Chapter 7 may help. This bankruptcy typically takes only three or four months, but it can reduce your other debt, which may allow you to pay the student loans.
