I plan to file a consumer proposal very soon. I have some money in my bank account, approximately $3,000. Will this amount affect the calculation of surplus income, or in other words, will it affect the amount I will have to pay each month?
It doesn't seem like a significant amount that would greatly influence the terms of a proposal. Obviously, I don't have all the details, and that's all I can say. Your trustee will assess everything as a whole.

- A few months ago, I bought a new car, financed by the bank. My partner signed the loan agreement, and I was the co-buyer. If I sign a consumer proposal, what impact will it have on the loan? I don't want my partner to be disadvantaged.
- Can I consider the consumer proposal even if I am receiving unemployment insurance benefits (I have the maximum benefits)?
- Can my spouse and I submit a proposal at the same time? We have approximately $115,000 in debt. Can we also include our line of credit and credit facilities in this proposal? My mortgage renewal is due next year: could the financial institution refuse me?
- Does making a consumer proposal impact our job prospects? To work for the government, applicants are required to sign an authorization to check references, criminal record, and credit before being hired.
- For the past few years, the provincial government has been garnishing my wages. After all this time, I'm at my wit's end. However, I'm indebted to friends and family. I also owe Hydro-Québec, Mastercard, and now the federal government is demanding over $4,000, which will result in another wage garnishment. I'm in debt and I couldn't pay my rent this month. Can I include my unpaid rent in my consumer proposal since my landlord has gone to the Régie du logement (Quebec Rental Board) and the next month is coming up and I won't be able to pay it?
