Will I lose my credit cards if I file for chapter 7 bankruptcy?

If an individual files for chapter 7 bankruptcy and they owe money on a credit card, then the amount of money owed on the credit card will be discharged in bankruptcy,s but the credit card company will cancel the credit card. If the debtor wants to keep the credit card after the bankruptcy filing, they may reaffirm the debt which will require them to pay the money due on the credit card after the bankruptcy filing. Reaffirmation requires that the debtor file a special form or agreement with the bankruptcy court with the bankruptcy petition. The Debtor's attorney prepares the reaffirmation agreement.
