During the bankruptcy, the offical receiver will take all valuable assets that you own, which include; expensive cars, property, valuable jewellery, paintings etc.
They are not interested in low value items, such as TV, Laptop, clothes. These items are classed as part of your normal living.
Just because you go bankrupt, doesnt mean the court will leave with nothing!
I would imagine, that your bankruptcy would be fairly simple and you would not be expected to pay anything after the bankruptcy. If you were earning an income, the official reciever (the person who is appointed by the courts to get as much money for the creditors), would take a percentage of the money that is left from your monthly income after paying rent, bills, food, insurance etc. This is classed as disposable income, anything over £20 is. You will need to pay what they decide for the next 3 years.
However please remember that you will need to pay the bankruptcy fee + court fees, when you declare yourself bankrupt. The cost is approx £800.
My advice would for you to go and have a chat with a CAB officer, they give free advice and will even support you through the bankruptcy and will complete the bankruptcy petition.
