any exemption from bankruptcy admin fees?

Can anyone advise me please, do you get any exemption from paying the bankruptcy admin fees if you're receiving JSA?

  • Yep I think Job seekers is included in the exemption. You'd still need to pay the £345 court fee's though, it's only the £150 admin fee's that you can be exempted from.
  • Sorry to butt in Hannah, but it's the other way around :o

    You can get exemption for the £150 court fees, but not the £345 bankruptcy deposit, no way out of that one I'm afraid.

  • That's what I said....
  • The court fees are £150, not £345, .

  • Oh right that bit!! lol! Fair one, glad I got the fact that the £345 still has to be paid right though! Else I might have got someone's hopes up!
  • Imagine how gutted someone would be turning up at court thinking they would get £345 back :D
