I'm bankrupt – what do I need to know?
Becoming bankrupt is an important step in your journey of making a fresh financial start.
Bankruptcy helps take the pressure off you dealing with creditors and from making repayments on certain types of debts.
It's important to understand what you need to do to meet your obligations, and keep your trustee informed of any changes in your circumstances.
