Residence Address

Question:
When you fill out the chatper 7 appplication, do you have to give your real residence address, or is a mailing address OK. I have a creditor who I think could try to harrass me at home if I gave out my home address. What can i do?

Answer:
I don't know what you mean by a Chapter 7 "application." If you're referring to the petition, you need to provide your actual address. You can also select a mailing address for notices and the like to be sent to you. It sounds as if you don't have an attorney, particularly given your concerns about post-filing harassment by a creditor. I can't emphasize strongly enough how important it is for you to be represented by a lawyer during this process, and recommend that you retain one to take care of these matters.
