Quote Quoting Mr. Knowitall
View Post
Your inheritance goes to you. Your daughter's inheritance goes to her.

If you receive an inheritance within six months of filing for bankruptcy, the inheritance must be applied to your debts. See 11 USC Sec. 541(a)(5).

Given that you appear confused about the bankruptcy process, you should sit down and talk about your repayment plan with your bankruptcy lawyer.

Thank you Mr. Knowitall. I try often to read for myself the laws, and get a bit dizzy. I really do appreciate your help. My stomach has settled a bit knowing gifts to my kiddos won't be thrown away on my mistakes. I appreciate the time you took to answer very, very much.
