I need to file personal bankruptcy. I wanted to know if I can do the following.
Open a business that where I am an employee and pay myself each month but also own the business in a company name.
From there I file personal bankruptcy.
Would this affect the business? Or just my personal finance.
That makes me personally bankrupt but the business still makes money.
I understand it has to be a ltd company.
Can I do this?

what happens if my home equity goes up during bankruptcy, after the initial appraisal, and I sell my home? Would the new profit go to the trustee or could I use it for another home etc.?
I filed bankruptcy in sep'11 while i was separated from my spouse for over 2 years. We have since reconciled but due to work commitments he must remain living in another city. How will this affect my monthly income and how I report it? There is no longer child support which decreases my surplus income, yet he must support his residence elsewhere. Is he included in the household number?
