Asking for help with financial difficulties is a very difficult step. I am very experienced in helping people in BC with their financial difficulties and understand how difficult this step can be. Don't be discouraged, there are solutions. You do not have to solve the problems on your own. Help is available.

I will work with you to find the best solution and will explain your rights and your options, including bankruptcy, proposals and debt counselling in BC. Our first meeting is always free. Call me to arrange a free confidential consultation and take the next step to solve your financial difficulties.

Many people I help are able to avoid bankruptcy if they deal with their financial difficulties early enough.

I take a very practical, non-judgmental, personalized approach to solving financial difficulties. I believe that everyone is entitled to a fresh financial start.

If you are experiencing financial difficulties, call me to arrange a free consultation, together we can find a solution to your financial difficulties.

The initial consultation is free and it's confidential.

If a BC bankruptcy or a BC proposal is your best option for getting a fresh financial start you are allowed to keep up to $31,000 of personal assetsas follows:

BC Flag

  • Equity in a home in Greater Vancouver and Victoria = $12,000. In the rest of the province = $ 9,000;

  • Equity in Household items = $ 4,000;

  • A vehicle exemption is available only if the value of the vehicle does not exceed $5,000;  The vehicle exemption drops to $2,000 if the debtor is behind on child care payments (to facilitate the enforcement of Maintenance Orders)

  • Equity in work tools = $ 10,000;

  • Equity in essential clothing and medical aids is unlimited.

BC Harmonized Sales Tax Credit (BCHSTC).

To help offset the impact of the new tax on low-income residents, the province is introducing a new refundable credit program called the BCHSTC. The BCHSTC is an ongoing non-taxable quarterly payment that will be integrated with the Goods and Services Tax Credit (GSTC) and the British Columbia Low Income Climate Action Tax Credit (BCLICATC) payments starting in July 2010.

The Climate Action Tax Credit is exempt from seizure by the trustee. However, the GST/HST tax credit and the BCHSTC will be available to the trustee to the amount necessary to cover trustee fees.
