I Heard That . .. I Won' t Qualify for Student Loans, Jobs, or Apartment Leases.
It's generally against the law to discriminate against you in granting government guaranteed student loans or in employment simply because you filed bankruptcy.
It is not against the law to refuse to rent or make other loans to you, though. But since so many people have filed bankruptcy over the years there is virtually always someone willing to do business with our former clients.
You may have to look harder -- and you should make certain you keep up your credit after the bankruptcy so you can prove you are a better risk than you used to be.
