If you filed Ch 7 last year and have a car you didn't re-affirm and just kept making payments can you just give it up and not owe any money on it?

Better ask your B/K attorney on that. OR the LENDER. IN FILING CHAPTER 7, YOU CAN KEEP THE VEHICLE AS LONG AS YOU CAN MAKE THE PAYMENTS. HOWEVER, IF YOU DID NOT RE-AFFIRM THAT LOAN AGREEMENT, YOU MAY SURRENDER THE VEHICLE TO THE LENDER. SINCE IT WAS INCLUDED IN THE BANKRUPCTY, YOU WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY FURTHER MONEY OWED TO THE LENDER. IF THAT LOAN WAS RE-AFFIRMED, YOU CAN STILL SURRENDER THE VEHICLE, BUT WILL HAVE TO PAY THE BALANCE THAT REMAINS ON THE LOAN PLUS ANY FEES, TOW, ETC.

What happens when someone you cosigned a mortgage for has filed for bankruptcy?
When you co-sign on a loan or mortgage for someone, you are promising to make the loan payments if they can't. When someone files for bankruptcy, they are claiming that they cannot make their payments. It would stand to reason that if someone you co-signed on a mortgage for files for bankruptcy that you would then be liable for making the payments.
I brought a car for my girlfriend daughterI filed for bankruptcy which I was discharge.I put the car down on the form to keep for her to keep making payments but she stop and the car is in her name.?
Open Bankruptcy means that your petition has been filed, but you have not yet received your discharge papers. The discharge papers officially relieve you of your debt.
Will it help your credit if you dismiss your Chapter 13 bankruptcy and start making payments to your creditors?
No, it will probably hurt your credit. The Chapter 13 is on your credit report for 7 years from the date the Order for Relief is entered, which is the day the case is filed. So, even if you dismiss it the credit hit from the 13 has already appeared on your credit (a 75 to 150 point drop). And, if you dismiss it, then all the creditors included in it suddenly come back to life and would start billing you, making your debt to income ratio worse. And, if you fail to pay them, then the late payments would make your credit even lower. Once a 13 is filed, it's best - creditwise - to finish it.
If you filed for bankruptcy would the cosigner of your auto loan be forced to take over payment?
The answer is that the cosigner would be left responsible for taking over the payments. If the cosigner wants to maintain his or her credit rating (which is probably damaged due to your filing bankruptcy), If the consignor does not want the auto loan people to sue for any remaining balance, then he or she will need to keep making the payments. If the auto loan company sues for any remaining balance and gets a judgment, then the auto loan company will go after the assets of the consignor and or garish their earnings. attempt o seize their assets or garnish their earnings.
If you filed bankruptcy would your house be foreclosed on?
If you file for bankruptcy the court will be in charge of finding a fair settlement. They can require the person in bankruptcy to sell their primary residence if that is the main asset of value. The rules vary by jurisdiction. Independent of the bankruptcy the lender who has a loan secured by the property can foreclose and force the sale of the home if the payments are not made as agreed. A bankruptcy does not release the borrower from keeping up the payments on the home loan. As most loans state, if you fail to keep up with your payments your home is at risk.
You filed bankruptcy but opted to pay off your car loan you have documented proof of this the court went and filed it as a bankruptcy and you need the title of the car?
If all you did was sign the "Statement of Intention" saying you intended to reaffirm the debt, and did not in fact reaffirm the debt with a reaffirmation filed with the court, and did not continue making car payments after the date of filing, the secured debt survived the filing and you are not entitled to the title until you pay the loan off. The lender can repossess the vehicle and sell it. It's not a question of what the court did, but what you did or did not do with respect to the loan.
Can an Home owners association put a lien on your property even while you are making payments?
You are not clear about who you're making payments to: the mortgage company for your mortgage, or to the association to pay assessments that are in arrears. If you mean payments to make up arrears, and the association filed a lien on your title, review the agreement that you made with them about making payments. It's possible that filing a lien is part of your agreement in some way. Or, that the association has filed a lien against you in error. If you mean payments to pay your mortgage, and you are not paying your assessments, your association filed a lien to collect monies that you owe in past-due assessments. (You have to pay both: mortgage and assessments.) If your assessments are up to date, check with the board to better understand why a lien has been filed by the association on your title.

In California would the debtor who just filed bankruptcy be arrested for concealing the car on which he stopped making payments?
I don't know about California, but if you filed bankruptcy, you do have to answer to a Judge as to your actions, the non-payment, and/or concealment. The loan was secured by the car so if the Judge sees that the car is worth what is owed--you either reafirm and make payments or you give the car back.
Is there anyway you can find a lender willing to make a loan to help keep your home after you have filed for ch 13 but have not yet been to court?
It's not impossible, but it is highly unlikely. Lenders will probably not view you as a "good risk." The ususual procedure is to reaffirm the loan and make arrrangements for catching up on missed payments with the original lender.
