Consumer proposals are great options for people who don't want to declare bankruptcy. You can agree to a consumer proposal Toronto with your creditor and legally file. This protects you from various debt collectors and will allow you to just pay the portion of your debt that you are able to. Your creditor will be a licensed bankruptcy trustee, so you can be sure to address all your debt woes with him or her.
Once you file a consumer proposal, you'll be required to pay a certain portion of your debt balance. This is an agreed upon amount that your creditors allow, and the rest of your debts will be forgiven. This is also mentally helpful, as you'll be able to release a lot of the burden your once large debt pushed down on you.
You have a maximum repayment period up to 5 years for the partial payment. Another good thing about the proposal is that once it is filed, debt collectors will stop calling, there won't be any more interest accumulating on the debts, and wage garnishments will stop immediately. Also, your assets and home are safe as well, seeing as this is different from bankruptcy.
Surplus income is not an issue or concern when it comes to these proposals, just like bankruptcy. Additionally, the assets and home you will be able to keep will also never be surrendered temporarily to your creditor during the period of payment. Regardless of whether you income increases or decreases within the 5 years, the portion of debt agreed to will never change either.
Your credit score won't be as affected as it would if you were to file for bankruptcy. Bankruptcy produces a R9 rating, which is the lowest rank you can achieve. However, consumer proposals are usually at a R7 rating.
You aren't the only one benefiting from this filing. Your creditors, while they aren't receiving the full debt amount, receive at least some portion. If you were to go bankrupt, they would not receive anything. Therefore, if you really are in a place where you can only pay a partial amount of your debts, the creditors welcome this alternative.
If your debts range between five thousand dollars to two hundred fifty thousand dollars, consumer proposals are a good solution for you. They would also be a good option for you if you have a stable job and are able to pay a small amount per month, or if you just can't seem to pay a total debt balance with the full interest. If you don't want to go bankrupt because you want to avoid the surplus income payments or can't obtain a debt consolidation loan because of a high debt balance, you can also file this proposal.
There still are some limitations to consumer proposals. You won't be able to pick which debts you want to pay, since your creditors will decide the dispersal. You also won't be able to avoid alimony or spousal support, some student loans, or home mortgage and car loan obligations. Your creditor will give you further detailed information on what qualifies and what doesn't in consumer proposals.
