Determining What Province To File For Bankruptcy
2009-10-26
Author: Bradley Milne
Hello,
All bankruptcies in Canada are administered through federal legislation called the Bankruptcy & Insolvency Act. If you file for bankruptcy in Manitoba, you do not have to file again in another province if you move. The bankruptcy is recognized across all provinces.
If you file for bankruptcy in Manitoba, you may still move to British Columbia during the course of the bankruptcy proceeding. You are required to keep the Trustee advised of any change om your address or other contact information. The debt counselling required during the course of the bankruptcy can be completed by another Trustee office, if necessary, however, the administration of your bankruptcy will continue to be handled by the office in which you filed.
