Bankruptcy Adelaide, What is the Deal with Debts?


What Debts are cleared away if I go Bankrupt?

The simple answer is that when it concerns Bankruptcy most debts are wiped, and I have added a chart below for you to look at.
But, simply put some of the exceptions are Centrelink Debts, Child Support, Court fines (like speeding fines) and also any debts arising from uninsured Motor-vehicle claims and educational debts like HECS or FEE-HELP. These debts are not wiped out when you file for bankruptcy.

What about Secured Debts?

A secured debt is a vehicle loan or a home loan; it is a debt that has some actual security connected to it. So for instance if you buy a new car for $40,000 dollars the security for that car is the actual car itself.

So, can my secured debts be wiped out if I file for bankruptcy?

Yes. If you have a car loan for $40,000 you can have that debt eliminated if you simply return the car. So the lesson is that you cannot have your cake and eat it too (so to speak), so yes all of your secured debts might be wiped but the asset will need to be sold or returned. This is just one facet that, when it comes to Bankruptcy, it is important to get professional advice - like that readily available at Bankruptcy Advice Adelaide.

What about my Tax Debts with the ATO can they be erased If I go bankrupt?

Yes they can, both business and personal debts owing to the ATO can be eliminated with bankruptcy. If you have a business with any form of debts get some advice because it is not always so straightforward.
