| | Mandatory Credit Counseling for Those Considering BankruptcyWritten by Charles Essmeier
Most Americans are aware of sweeping changes in U.S. bankruptcy law that were made by Congress recently. These changes, strongly supported by credit card industry, were designed to make it more difficult for Americans to file for bankruptcy under Chapter 7 of Federal bankruptcy code. Chapter 7 allows consumers to essentially have all of their debts wiped away by court. While many people will still be able to file under Chapter 7, many more will have to file under Chapter 13, which requires establishment of a repayment plan. A less publicized provision of bankruptcy bill is one that requires debtors who are considering filing for bankruptcy to first undergo credit counseling. What does this mean for consumers?Actually, details are not yet known. The law, which takes effect on October 17, 2005, does require that debtors considering bankruptcy receive credit counseling at least six months before filing for bankruptcy. The law also requires that they receive additional counseling before case is finalized and that any agency providing counseling services must charge an undefined “reasonable fee.” Other than that, there are no details yet. The portion of law that deals specifically with credit counseling hasn’t yet been written, and full details are not expected to be released until mid-summer. Even those who work in credit counseling industry do not know what will be expected of them once law takes effect.
