Asked almost 3 years ago - Fort Lauderdale, FL
FlagI had to go on ss disability last year due to an illness and i wont be going back to work, ever. I gave my house back to the bank in california, who is now selling it, and about to lose my condo in florida as well. i WAS going to file chap 7, but upon a recent credit report, i found out all creditors had written off all my credit card debt. Since my income is now just social security and calpers disability, do i still need to file for chap 7 or just let time heal this credit wound?

Your Social Security checks cannot be garnished. I am not familiar with your other disability check. It would not hurt to discuss your debts with a bankruptcy lawyer.
