Consumer Proposal Winnipeg | |
A consumer proposal Winnipeg is not complicated; to put it in its simplest terms, a Consumer Proposal is a settlement offer to your creditors. When filing a consumer proposal Winnipeg residents – and all other Canadians – can no longer be targeted for collection actions by creditors. A Stay of Proceedings is put in place upon the filing of a consumer proposal. In this way, filing a Consumer Proposal is similar to filing for bankruptcy. The proposal is filed with the federal government, which oversees the process. What are the requirements for filing a Consumer Proposal? To file a consumer proposal in Winnipeg, you must be insolvent, (insolvency means you are unable to pay your debts as they come due, or the value of your property is less than your debts) owe between $1,000 and $250,000, and be a resident of Canada in order to file a consumer proposal. Winnipeg residents, and all Canadians, owing more than $250,000 can still file a proposal, just not a consumer proposal. Couples filing a joint proposal can file if they jointly owe under $500,000. What happens after a Consumer Proposal is filed? Once a consumer proposal is filed, creditors have 45 days to respond to the proposal and vote on the proposal. If 25% or more, by dollar value, of your creditors vote against the proposal and request a meeting of creditors, a meeting of creditors must be held. At the creditor meeting, the proposal will be accepted or rejected by a simple majority of creditors. If the proposal is initially rejected, it can be amended to something that will hopefully be accepted. If an agreement cannot be reached, bankruptcy is always an option. https://caplandebtsolutions.ca/consumer-proposal/ | |
