Like all organisations staff vary, some will be warm and friendly, some will be short and to the point. None though will be judgemental or nasty. Dont be afarid at any time though to slow them down if you think they are rushing ahead, if you need something explained to you dont be afraid to askHi, im Debtinfo, i am an ex insolvency examiner and over the years have personally dealt with thousands of bankruptcy cases.

Just try and answer as honestly as youcan, dont guess at anything, if you dont know say so, but try and answer as best you can, For instance they may say when did you takethat debt out, now you may not know exactly but you might be able to say, it was definitly after i moved to that address or before i bought that car etc etc, it just helps the examiner put everything in orderHi, im Debtinfo, i am an ex insolvency examiner and over the years have personally dealt with thousands of bankruptcy cases.

Applying a 'Nil tax' code
If you pay tax under PAYE, HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) will usually apply a 'nil tax' code to you for the rest of the tax year in which you were declared bankrupt. This means that soon after your bankruptcy, your employer will be told NOT to take any more income tax from your wages for the rest of the tax year. HMRC applies nil tax codes for various reasons, and the new tax code will not tell your employer you are bankrupt. The nil tax code does not mean no tax is due. It just enables HMRC to claim the whole of your unpaid tax for the year of your bankruptcy.
There will be extra money in your pay because of the nil tax code. This money will form the basis of an IPA or IPO, even if you have no other real disposable income. A nil tax (or NT) IPA or IPO may be the only amount you have to pay, and the agreement or order will stop when your tax code changes. If you have other real disposable income, the IPA or IPO will reduce when your tax code changes."Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them." Dalai Lama0
