My life when I went BR was relatively uncomplicated as I was not married, had no dependants, had no assets and had just been made redundant a few months earlier. I don't anticipate any future BROs or anything as there was no crime involved, my bankruptcy was not due to any recklessness on my part and I cooperated fully with the OR. I've since become a full-time university student in an attempt to enter into a profession. Fortunately there are no restrictions on bankrupts entering this profession, but I may be required to become a director of my own limited company in order to practice. My questions are as follows: * I understand that, as an undischarged bankrupt, you are not permitted to be a director of a limited company, but is this restriction lifted after discharge? * I also understand that my credit rating will be damaged for up to 6 years. Does this 6 year period start from the day I went BR or from the day I was discharged? * Is it true that ex-bankrupts will always struggle to get credit, even after this 6 year period? Any answers will greatly be appreciated. Qwerty. [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature. Check here to subscribe to this topic.
