Joining Navy and filing bankruptcy while on DEP or before Bootcamp.HELP?
Boy Bawang asked:
Hi i hope you can answer my question in regards of joining the Navy while in process of filing Chapter 7 or Bankruptcy. I talked to my recruiter and he said Navy would still enlist people who filed bankruptcy but will likely get hard time getting security clearance…i am okay with jobs w/o clearance anyway. My question is after i file Bankruptcy would they still processed me in MEPS while waiting for my court order to be discharged on my debts or let say after i get processed in MEPS then i file my bankruptcy while waiting for bootcamp? (am i allowed to do that?) Theres no way i can avoid filing bankruptcy and i really want to join the navy as soon as possible. Thanks

How do I provide for my son with bad credit?
Sarah asked:
When I was 18 I messed up pretty bad with a credit card and a car loan. I ended up getting sick and losing both of my jobs and incurred all of the medical bills. I have never been able to pay them off. I ended up getting married 2 years ago and I still haven’t paid off my debt because I felt guilty about my husband having to pay off my debt when it wasn’t his to deal with. Anyways. I have about $10,000 in debt between everything, and I haven’t worked in a year because I’ve been a stay at home mom. Unfortunately my husband and I are planning on filing for a divorce when we get back to the states next May, and I am so worried that I will not be able to even get an apartment or even a job because of my credit and because I haven’t had a job and I don’t pay the bills. We live in Navy housing so we don’t have to worry about any bills other than the phone and cable.
I realize this is my own fault and I want desperately to take responsibility.
As I stated, I don’t feel right about using my husband’s money to fix my debt…. I’ve been looking for a job for a few months now, but where we are stationed it is very difficult to find any type of job. It took me 7 months to find one before I got pregnant and became a stay at home mom. We leave next May and I am terrified I will be living in a cardboard box. ANY ADVICE?
