    summons letter undelivered - what then?

    When does SOL time start ticking It doesn't make any sense that SOL stopss till you re-enter the country. This is because no body on this forum mentioned this is the law. Everybody only mentins that SOL starts ticking when there is no activity on your account.

    summons letter undelivered - what then?

    Sol Yes, I was wrong in terms of Britain's policing and how they find out. But I was only providing ideas for the USA and the Statue of Limitation (SOL). If you are not able to file for bankruptcy, then remember SOL is one way to get out of debt...

    summons letter undelivered - what then?

    Changing name helps Why don't you just change your name when you obtain your British Citizenship? This would make you eligible for the SOL and cancel all your debt. The judgment has a SOL of 10 years in California I think. So if your name changes, then this would make it harder for creditors to...

    SOL and Not receiving a summons for 10 years

    SOL for a CC judgement that was issued 20 years ago So if the summon is never received by me at all, then I am safe after the 6 years? If I don't do a proper change of address to a foreign country for example, then after 10 years when I enter the USA, thenI would be eligible to make use of the...

    SOL and Not receiving a summons for 10 years

    Do creditors usually sue within 6 years? So how could one make use of the SOL if there are summons in the 6 years? Also, is it very likely that a creditor sues within the 6 years?

    SOL and Not receiving a summons for 10 years

    What is the name of your state? NY If I get a summons because of a credit card company is trying to sue me but I do not respond to the summons order, and stay absent for 6 consecutive years, then could I still make use of the SOL? What if I never received a summons because of change of address...

    Bankruptcy or Just don't pay

    DON"T mention it. Since you bough it in cash there is no way for a creditor to track it or mention it in court. Just don't mention it as an asset when you file BK. This is because it's worth nothing. If you can use the SOL since you are overseas, it's better. Bankruptcy can be communicated...

    Bankruptcy or Just don't pay

    I am ignoring your loans in my response for now There is no such thing are getting arrested for not paying credit card debts. The worse thing a CC company can do happens when: 1) cc company Sues you 2) You have to be properly served a court order 3) You have to ignore going to court at the...

    I am in the same situation I am in the same situation (https://forum.freeadvice.com/showthread.php?t=215227) except I could file BK anytime I want. Since you are like me (caring about business), I suggest that you try your best to restore a good credit rating in the USA. There is NO such...

    How to avoid Bankruptcy thru Debt Settlement

    Thank you Thank you. I think I might do what you mentioned. I know that Canada/Mexico is the worst-case scenario. I might choose a non-neighboring country since I am salesperson and travel often and have residence already established far away. But the idea of trying my best to pay some credit...

    How to avoid Bankruptcy thru Debt Settlement

    Pay some, default on others. Compare to BK. “Back to your question about paying some CC and not others...no, that doesn't reset the SOL on the ones you don't pay. Each debt has its own DOLA and therefore SOL” It’s critical to know that resetting the time counter (for the 6 years SOL for NY)...

    How to avoid Bankruptcy thru Debt Settlement

    Student loan and SOL Hi Ladynred, What about Federal Student Loans (from the Dept. of Education)? Do you think the SOL also applies to them? I agree. 6 years is a long time. I am considering paying 2 of my credit cards off while totally ignoring others (including federal student loans) for 6...
