Hi John and welcome to the forum

It depends what type of accountant you want to train to be really. Both the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales and the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants will have their own rulings about student entry, and you would be wise to contact both of them to see what views they currently have about membership.

For an informal chat about any financial difficulties, or advice as to the options available, I can be contacted via my website - www.melaniegiles.com

I will probably study the acca or aat, Once out of bankruptcy would I then be ok. Finally, would that then be after 1 year when it is discharged, 3 years or 6 when it comes off the credit files?....

thanks

The bankruptcy will remain on your record for six years from the date of the bankruptcy order. You will have to check with the AAT and ACCA as to whether they have any bars to entry as a student if you have been bankrupt in the past. I would not have thought so, but it is best to check.
