It will lower your credit score initially. Your creditors may not approve your proposal; however, this is rare – 99% of consumer proposals are accepted. If you miss three consecutive payments, it will be automatically annulled, and your debts will return.
Secured credit cards A secured credit card is a great way to build credit after filing either a proposal or bankruptcy. After filing for bankruptcy, a secured credit card is really your only option.
A consumer proposal can only be filed for non-mortgage debt up to $250,000. Bankruptcy has no limit to the amount of debt that can be included, only a minimum of $1000.
Filing a consumer proposal will typically result in an R7 rating for 6 years from the date the proposal is filed, or three years from the day the proposal is complete, whichever comes first.
Make payments in full and on time Those who file a consumer proposal can keep a credit card with a zero balance at the date of filing. This will help re-establish credit during the consumer proposal. Many people worry that filing a consumer proposal will drop their credit card limit, this is not automatically the case.
In general, Consumer Proposals remain on your credit profile for three years from the date of full performance and bankruptcies remain on your credit profile for six years from the date of discharge for a first time bankrupt.
In most cases you can keep any credit cards that do not have outstanding balances — and you may apply for new credit during your Consumer Proposal should you wish to do so. Though, it may be difficult to find a willing lender, and we discourage taking on any additional credit throughout the Consumer Proposal period.
