My Debts Are Over 75000 And Ive Been Told I Cant File A Proposal Is That True

2009-08-05

No, that is not true – generally, anyone can file a proposal regardless of their debt level. There are two types of proposals – one is called a consumer proposal and is available to a debtor whose debts are $75,000 or less (a mortgage on a principal residence is not included in this figure), and the other is called a Division I proposal, and is available to a debtor whose debts are greater than $75,000. Most of the concepts are the same for both proposals, but there are a few differences. Please call one of our trustees for additional information.
