Hi Defeated,
Have you had an opportunity to talk it over with your ex yet? It is good that you are now open to considering going to Britain rather than the North. Have you any contacts or friends over there? Even if they weren't close it would be easier to arrange to go to a city where you have some prior contact. Same things apply, you need to find out the work opportunities and the cost of accommodation so you can estimate a moving fund you need to have in place.
There is a thread ' where is the best place to declare bankruptcy'
Steve Thatcher, who specialises in UK bankruptcy should reply to any questions you have.
Alternatively, contact him directly by searching for him here.
Best of luck
Highly doubtful i will be going with steve or any other specialist due to money and the lack of it, thanks for the reply though.
I have possibly the only family in ireland which has nobody abroad lol, bar a couple of football matches there is not many places ive even been to in the uk.
Where would people tend to recommend heading for???
Yes, you can come home to visit your kids, however given the restrictions on credit etc. when you go bankrupt travelling might become more onerous to arrange (ever tried paying cash for a RyanAir flight?) I am not sure if you can do this but it might be worth booking a set of flights in advance of going say one weekend every three months to come home to visit them. It might not be as frequent as you would like but you'd have them to look forward to. And with the ease of travel between the UK and Ireland travelling back once every three months to connect with your children shouldn't seem unreasonable. The other thing to consider is that your first task is to establish COMI, that will take a few months, then you apply for bankruptcy.I have some questions if anybody can answer, just stuff going through my head really.
Can i come home to visit the kids regularly (if funds available) from the UK.
I presume i would not be entitled to any benefits or rent help in the UK till i got on my feet/if i ran out of money while there?
I have spoken to my ex partner over the weekend and i think she is going to go for bankruptcy rather than doing nothing here in ireland, Is it possible that i can file for bankruptcy in the UK and my ex do so in this country??
As Luternau has said, Steve Thatcher is very good about responding to questions about bankruptcy on this forum so no harm in asking a question - if you don't try, you never know. The worst anyone can do if you ask a question is say no. But most times people will answer if you ask.Highly doubtful i will be going with steve or any other specialist due to money and the lack of it, thanks for the reply though.
Can you cite the relevant law please?but 12 in the case of mortgage shortfall.
