Bankruptcy How Do I Get Started?
So you have decided to declare yourself bankrupt, what do you do? Declaring bankruptcy is a relatively simple process with a rather complex set of forms.
So what do you need to do?
- Complete a debtors petition form, ensuring you complete all relevant sections.
- Complete a statement of affairs form, ensuring you complete all relevant sections.
- Ensure you have read, understood and signed all prescribed forms and information.
- Obtain a registered trustee’s consent to act or, appoint the official trustee (government body).
In essence, these forms compile all relevant information about you and lists the assets and liabilities of the proposed bankrupt to give the Australian Financial Security Authority (AFSA)
