No. Never. It is exempt and protected.
Chapter 7 is a liquidation bankruptcy, you are giving up your assets. If you want to keep your home and car you would need to file a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.
No
No, even under the new bankruptcy laws which will go into effect on Oc. 17th, 401K's are still exempt from BK.f However, filing a Chapter 7, will be nearly impossible for the average consumer after the October deadline, and any BK can face automatic dismissal for any number of reasons.
No. It is protected by law.
At 65 there is no penalty tha I am aware of
Yes, but it is one of the absolute stupidest things financially you can do. By the end of th BK you will lose the 401k money, which is only protected while it is IN the 401k, and be left with the debt to the plan, which won't be discharged and will seize the money in the plan to be paid.
Yes.
I believe new bankruptcy law exempts all retirement from being touch during bankruptcy so it should be safe
Nothing they are exempt form seizure.
These assets should not be effected at all.
The MAX amount you can draw is 300k.
