I'm thinking about filing bankruptcy because my debt to income ratio is ridiculous and I'm ready to be financially free again. I am a single mother, and I have my Bachelor's degree but I'm having a hard time finding a good job. I need to find a job paying a certain amount or otherwise it would be a waste of time for me to take my daughter to daycare and work all day for nothing. Anyhow, I recently applied to a couple of jobs that I feel I have a good chance at getting, but even if I do get chosen for one of the jobs, it will still take me at least two years to pay off my debt (school loans included) and I don't know if it's better for me to file bankruptcy now or if I should attempt to pay off my debt which could take forever. I'm concerned that after everything is said and done, that if I do file bankruptcy I wont be able to get certain jobs (Federal and non-federal) that I was hoping to secure? Any help? Thank you.
