Depending on your reasons for declaring BR this time you may end up with a BRU but this will really depend upon you reasons for BR last time and this time.

Do you mean Early Discharge or does the 2nd bankruptcy last for longer than the 'normal' 1 year period?

Chances are that you will end up with a BRU as you will be declaring BR for the same reason twice. Although a BRU isn't good it isn't the end of the world. It will mean that you won't be able to get any loans or credit cards for a few years, which isn't a bad thing.

If BR is your only option then it's best to go for it and try not to worry about a probable BRU.

Hi there should be no BRU for a double bankruptcy in this case as the one in Jan 2004 was under the old legislation. The BRO/BRU cannot take into account the first bankruptcy as it was under adifferent legislative system
