Bankruptcy Sunshine Coast, So what is the Deal with Debts?

Just what Debts are removed if I go Bankrupt?

The simple answer is that when it concerns Bankruptcy most debts are wiped, and I have featured a chart below for you to look at.

But, simply put some of the exceptions are Centrelink Debts, Child Support, Court fines (like speeding fines) together with any debts arising from uninsured Motor-vehicle claims and educational debts for example, HECS or FEE-HELP. These debts are not erased 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 real security connected to it. So for example if you buy a new car for $40,000 dollars the security for that 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 erased 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 has to be sold or returned. This is just one element that, when it comes to Bankruptcy, it is necessary to get professional help - like that you can find at Bankruptcy Experts Sunshine Coast.

What about my Tax Debts with the ATO can they be erased If I go bankrupt?

Yes they can, both business and personal debts owing to the ATO can be cleared away with bankruptcy.
