Personal Bankruptcy in The Woodlands and the Southern District of Texas is an important procedure. In order to obtain the discharge that is one of the most important goals of going through bankruptcy in The Woodlands, you must fulfill your obligations to the Bankruptcy Court. If you do not fulfill your obligations to the Court, your case may be dismissed or some of your debts may not be discharged.

This is Part 2 of my series reviewing your obligations as a bankruptcy filer in The Woodlands and the Southern District of Texas. Your obligations include:

1. You must provide a written statement to the Trustee describing the status of any domestic support obligations you owe, i.e. the amount you owe; when it is owed; are you current or delinquent; if delinquent for how long and how much is owed; and the name and address to whom you pay a domestic support obligations.
2. You must provide written notice to the Trustee of any monies you may receive as a beneficiary of a life insurance policy or as a result of a death benefit plan that you acquire or become entitled to prior to the filing of bankruptcy or within six (6) months after the date you filed your bankruptcy petition.
3. You must turn over to the Trustee any money that you receive as a result of rental properties that are not claimed as exempt.
