Nearly there -- two questions :)

Well, the Big Day is Tuesday for me. I'm beginning to get a little anxious. Two questions.

First, when does the bankruptcy register on my credit file?

Second, I see a lot of people asking detailed questions about the SOA. Is this a thing you fill in after the BR? The form I'm planning to hand in on Tuesday is far less detailed.

How much extra information is going to be required from me by the OR?

    The form is far less detailed, but in the box at the bottom you should put your other things. Child Care, vets, dental, contents Ins, holiday fund, tv licence, dry cleaning etc. list them with all the amounts. The OR will then go through them all with you.


    Can't answer your 1st query though.

    Best of Luck
    I'm no expert, but i'll give you my opinion, my support and my experience. Its all i have.

    sorry, not sure how long it takes until it shows on your credit file, it isn't straightaway though, takes a while for the info to filter through

    I think I read on here, that the OR does not actually inform the credit reference agencies, it will be one of your creditors that actually does the deed.
