Waiting for them to come get the car


What is the name of your state? TX

Just filed chap.7 yesterday and couldn't exempt my car. I didn't make the July payment and the August payment is due today (no, I'm not making the pymt). Obviously, they don't know as of yet that I have filed. Once they know (I'm going to call them in a minute), they cannot come repossess for a little while due to the stay...

What I need to know is how long will it be? I'm sure they will file a motion to lift the stay so they can come get it as soon as possible... I just wondered when to expect to see it gone.

There's simply no way to tell. Some creditors will act very quickly, others seem to take their own sweet time.

On the Chapter 7 Petition if you surrender the car in Texas they can pick it up without filing a lift of stay.
