Q19. Will my employer or neighbours find out?

All bankruptcies are recorded in the public Register of Insolvencies which can be searched by anyone. There is no charge to search the Register of Insolvencies.

Your trustee will not contact your employer or anyone else unless there is a good reason to do so.

If you agree or are ordered by the courts to pay a contribution to your trustee from your earnings, your trustee can ask the court to instruct your employer to make payments direct from your earnings to your trustee.
