Can you file bankruptcy when you are on disability and the creditors a re all over you and they are taking garnishments and setting judgements against you? When on disability you barely have enough to live on... let a lone pay bills... these are all creditors that I had before being put on disability... beleive me... going from a 40,000.00 a year job to 6000.00 a year is very rough. So can you file a chapter 7?
