My student was included. 16 years later I receive the letter from a collection agency informing me that I now owe the crown $24,995 ($18,000 interest). When I finally got a hold of someone I was told for the first time about the (ten year waiting period). Although I dont recall being informed of this by my "TRUSTEE" , I question why it has taken 16 years, since declaring bankruptcy, for the government to send notice that this matter is still unsettled....??? ($15,000 interst*#*#*#) Hello, I declared bankruptcy in 1990, at which point I had been out of school for 6 years.

It's been 2 1/2 years since I last attended, and am wondering if the debt will be erased if I file for bankruptcy, or am I to wait, filing later on? I also would like to take out a loan to get a car, and go back to school (college most likely as it's more affordable) How long would this process take from the time I filed for bankruptcy to the time I was able to successfully apply for a loan (if everything went smoothly)? What would you guess be a realistic amount I'd be able to borrow (guestimation if you aren't sure)? Thanks so much.

I'm very interested to see where this is headed as my student loan has recently fallen into 3rd party collections, and I've only been out of school for 4 years.
