Question: I am wondering if I can file bankruptcy in Calgary by myself since I have so many in my name and without my husbands name. Or does he have to file with me?
Answer: Yes, even if you are married you can file bankruptcy in Calgary on your own; your husband is not required to file bankruptcy with you.
Question: I need to stop the collection calls as soon as possible. How quick can I stop the calls?
Answer: It is possible to file a bankruptcy in a matter of a few days. Your trustee will electronically file your bankruptcy after you have signed the bankruptcy paperwork, and the bankruptcy is effective immediately. Your creditors are then notified by mail, so the collection calls normally stop in a week or two.
For more information, we suggest you contact a Calgary bankruptcy trustee to arrange a no-charge initial consultation.
