Hi,
I think I will be declaring myself bankrupt after all and I have phoned my local county court to ask them if there is a waiting list and they have said "no", I just need to turn up. Does this mean that if I submit my petition sometime in early March, then I should be declared bankrupt on the same day? I am trying to do this before the start of the new financial year as I would rather not have to let my empoyers know of my bankruptcy. Does this make sense and am I right in thinking that the day you turn up in court with the relevant papers and payment, this is the same day you are declared bankrupt?
Confused.
