Question: I filled for personal bankruptcy in November 2007 and was discharged in August 2008. I have recently discovered, however, that I am not discharged by my trustee. Can you tell me when my trustee should discharge me and what are they still able to do until then?
Thank You
Answer: You should talk to your trustee to confirm your exact status. You say that you were discharged in August 2008, but you are not discharged. You can't be both.
It is possible that you were discharged, but your trustee is not yet discharged. That's not unusual. Your trustee must finish their work, including filing all tax returns (some of which may not be filed until after you are discharged), and they must complete their paperwork and file it with the government to get their discharge. This has no direct impact on you, so it's not something to worry about.
On the other hand, it's possible that you were not discharged. If that's the case, you need to talk to your trustee to find out what you didn't do, that you need to do, to get your discharge.
