Hi creditcrunched.

You are in the right place, but I don't know the answer!

Hi Creditcrunched, it means that you are no longer bankrupt! When you are made BR you are usually discharged after 1 year, which is known as automatic discharge. The exceptions to this are:

Early discharge - if a case is straightforward the OR MAY ask your creditors if they have any objections to you being discharged early. This can happen from around 5 months onwards, but doesn't happen in every case.

Suspended discharge - if the OR feels that you haven't co-operated with them they can apply to the courts to have your discharge suspended.
