Is inheritance exempt in Bankruptcy

Updated: 11/7/2022

No, the BK Trustee is to be notified of any inheritance received within 6 months of filing BK (even if you have already had your BK case discharged and closed). Short answer- no, you dont get to keep it unless you receive it more than 6 months from filing BK.
