There is a chance I will be getting a promotion at work with a substantial raise some time in the next month. My attorney told me any changes like this within 6 months would mean we would have to go back in front of a trustee, but most of what i'm reading says the bankruptcy will likely be discharged on day 61 after the meeting of the creditors. So basically I just don't know if a discharge means i'm in the clear or not I guess. -
