Obviously, my student loans were not discharged. One loan is in default and the other with bank. It has been over 7 yrs. If the new law comes into effect soon am I able to get the loans discharged? Will this affect my husband? The loans were taken out b/f we met. My husband and I claimed bankruptcy in 2005. Obviously, my student loans were not discharged.

The lawyer can help you make the application to court to have your student loans discharged. It is possible to make the application to bankruptcy court yourself (it's not that difficult), but each bankruptcy court in Canada follows different administrative procedures, so it is best to get assistance from your trustee, or from an experienced lawyer.

How would I go about applying for the discharge of the student loan when my 10 yrs is up? My bankruptcy trustee didnt mention this as an option.

I went bankrupt in late 2000. I still have about 65,000 in student loans. I cannot afford to pay them at $16 an hour. I'm trying verious crazy internet marketing schemwes to try to come up with a second source of income. I pay what I can but it grows month by month. I have 8 more months to wait before my 10 years are up. So I wait and pay what I can and wait some more. I sure hope you are right. I went bankrupt in late 2000.
