No you cannot be given one after discharge as far as I am aware. It has to be in place before discharge and usually happens near the end of the BR period.
The OR will have to call you in for a F2F before he can implement one and I believe this takes a few weeks to sort. I have a feeling that I read it takes around 8 weeks or so (probably wrong). If you are quibbling about a BRO then your AD can be suspended while it is sorted.BSCno.87The only stupid question is an unasked oneLoving life as a Kernow Hippy0 -
Have a look at section 5 of this:
http://www.insolvency.gov.uk/insolvencyprofessionandlegislation/dearip/dearipmill/chapter9.htm
It says that the OR can only do it after discharge with leave of court.BR 08/04/09 | ED 02/10/09 | BSC 255

Only in exceptional cases will a BRO be given after discharge. This is usually because the bankrupt has been hiding something that the OR could not reasonably have been expected to find earlier, or if the case is so complicated (like multi international fraud) that the OR did not have enough time to compete in the 12 months. If the OR is just being slow or lazy the Judge will not be to happy and throw it outHi, im Debtinfo, i am an ex insolvency examiner and over the years have personally dealt with thousands of bankruptcy cases.
