Bankruptcy

How do I file for bankruptcy?

If you decide to file for bankruptcy, the process must be handled by a trustee.

Any trustee that is licensed to practise in the Yukon can handle your bankruptcy. Please look in the Yellow Pages of your telephone directory under "Bankruptcies-Trustees" to find the name of a bankruptcy trustee for the Yukon.

For further information on bankruptcy, contact the Registrar in Bankruptcy (listed below) or the Federal Office of the Superintendent of Bankruptcy .
