Bankruptcy And Student Loans

My understanding of the law at the moment is that, provided the second course was not a continuation/ completion of the first, that the taking of the second course would not "restart" the seven year time period. So yes, my understanding would be that you would be able to file bankruptcy/ make a proposal in respect to the student loans in this case. Please contact our nearest office and give us some more details on the specific courses so that we can research this a bit further for you. Ian Schofield MNP Regina 306-790-7904
