Posted - 06 March 2009 : 10:29:32 I have no income I've just become unemployed and i haven't paid enough NI over the last two years so I cant claim any benefits.
I live with my girlfriend at my girlfriends sisters house, As i have no money to go bankrupt I'm worried that Im going to get visit after visit from bailiff's trying to take my girlfriends and her sisters possessions I don't actually own anything at all apart from my clothes.
How can i prove that none of the items in the house are mine.
also how can i go bankrupt with out any money ? its crazy that i cant even afford to go bankrupt.
what should i do ?

Posted - 06 March 2009 : 15:00:53 Make an appointment with your local Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) - they operate schems to help people in simiilar circumstances to yours to provide a voucher to enable you to file for bankruptcy - this service is only available via the CAB and only they can say whether or not you qualify. Another option may be that if your debts are under £15k the new Debt Relief Order (DRO)will be coming into effect from 6th April (again only available via the CAB) the costs of this is £90(but it can even be paid in insatllments for the low paid. It is no different than bankruptcy but brought in to deal with cases where debts under £15k and no assets ie house
Worth listing yoour debs and see whther your debts are under £15k and if you qualify for this. You will not have to attend court nor have an OR interview under this new scheme. Appointments are now being made in advance with local CAB offices but you will have to call in to book the appointment with an Accredited Money Advisor.
