Credit cards and bankruptcy

Question: can i draw money from my credit cards and keep it just before i go bankrupt?

Answer: No. Drawing money from credit cards before filing for bankruptcy would be considered fraud, and you would be required to pay it back, even if you went bankrupt.

Rebuilding credit after bankruptcy

Question: What would be the best way to rebuild credit after filing bankruptcy?

Answer: For residents of Calgary, Alberta, after the conclusion of your bankruptcy the most important step you can take is to begin saving money. By saving money you will have a significant down payment in the future to buy a car or house if needed.

To rebuild your credit after bankruptcy, one option is to get a secured credit card. You give the credit card company a deposit, and they give you a credit card with a credit limit equal to your deposit. The credit card appears on your credit report, and shows that you have begun to rebuild your credit.
