What Is a Reaffirmation AgreementReaffirmation agreements are legally binding contracts that allow you to continue making payments on a debt after you file for bankruptcy. They are only available for certain debts, including those listed above.
In order to reaffirm a debt, you must be current on the payments when you file for bankruptcy. You must also reaffirm all debts that are secured by collateral or are subject to a lease. If you are current on payments for a debt that is unsecured or not subject to a lease, you may still be able to reaffirm that debt.
If you are current on payments for a debt that is secured by collateral or subject to a lease, you must reaffirm that debt. If you are not current on payments for a debt that is secured by collateral or subject to a lease, you may still be able to reaffirm that debt if you can pay the arrears in a single payment.
You will be required to make payments to a creditor at least once a month. The creditor must agree to accept those payments at the same interest rate as before and must allow you to make payments at least once a month.
