A reaffirmation agreement is an agreement between a chapter 7 debtor and a creditor that the debtor will pay all or a portion of the money owed, even though the debtor has filed bankruptcy. In return, the creditor promises that, as long as payments are made, the creditor will not repossess or take back its collateral.
What happens after a reaffirmation agreement?
Once a reaffirmation agreement is approved, the debt becomes an ongoing obligation. The debtor must continue making payments as agreed, and if they default, the creditor can take legal action, such as repossessing the collateral or suing for the remaining balance.
Why would someone choose to reaffirm a debt?
Cons of a Reaffirmation Agreement The biggest downside is that reaffirmation takes away one of the key benefits of Chapter 7: having your personal responsibility for the debt erased. Once you reaffirm, youre legally on the hook for the loan again. That means if you fall behind later, your car can still be repossessed.
Can you do a reaffirmation agreement after discharge?
You cannot reaffirm any debt after your bankruptcy has been discharged. Bankruptcy law requires any reaffirmation to occur before the discharge is entered. In addition, the only reason to reaffirm is to persuade the mortgage company to report your ongoing payments to the credit bureaus.
What is the purpose of a reaffirmation agreement?
Reaffirming a debt informs the lender that you intend to continue to pay the loan. Generally, the lender will continue to report the loan and all payments made on that loan to the credit reporting agencies, which may help improve your credit score after bankruptcy, provided timely payments are made on the loan.
