Posted - 17 November 2008 : 11:43:24 I am declaring myself bankrupt and have a hearing next wednesday. It had just occured to me that I have a Canadian passport so I am wondering whether this will be an issue? I have a UK residency stamp in there and I have lived in the UK since I was 4 years old, I have a National Insurance number and pay tax. Does anybody know if this will be an issue?

when you eventually go the Brighton it is not too bad - on William Street just down from the American Express building.
You have to wait upstairs on 1st floor until the clerk is ready then you are led into a small room to go through the forms and check for errors. You swear an oath and pay the fee over.
You then have to wait in a dark / dreary room for the judge.
Afterwards the forms are available downstairs at the main counter in around 25 minutes.
Please remember don't rush - far too much to do.

The Canadian passport will not be an issue so don't worry.
re your other post you will need to miss 3 mortgage payments before the creditor starts posession proceedings so in theory it could be at least 5 / 6 months before one would have to leave.
enough time not to rush.
