In Illinois, filing chapter 13 which includes your parking tickets, you can get your license back.

Wow. Add no idea people would be so judgemental. I cosigned a car for my now exhusband who racked up the tickets. My question was, HOW SOON AFTER I FILE.

bullsh*t. Your tickets have nothing to do with filing bankruptcy. You are still responsible for the tickets.

I am sorry to tell you that your license restrictions will NOT be affected by your bankruptcy. They are 2 totally different things. You may not even be able to file a discharge of debt against the State where you live. Have you talked to a Bankruptcy attorney? Certain debt cannot be exempted by bankruptcy, such as Child support and Tax liens. I am not CERTAIN about the $7,000 not being discharged, but I have filed bankruptcy 2 time in 25 years, and I had an attorney. She told me NO State or Federal assesments were excused. But I DO know that just because the fines are gone doesn't mean you'll get your driving privileges back. A judge no doubt snatched it away and that means a judge will be the one to re-instate it. Good Luck, though.

I'd like to know how you ended up with $7K in parking tickets? And the rules for filing bankruptcy are much more difficult than they were just 1 year ago. You might not even be eligible now without taking some classes and trying to 'right' yourself before you can officially file.
I'd get with a bankruptcy lawyer as soon as possible if I were you. In the meantime, get used to public transportation.
If I were a judge and you showed up in my courtroom with $7K in parking tickets, you'd never drive again. Where I live, I'd have to get a parking ticket every working day for nearly 8 months to even come close to $7K!!! Every day for 8 months!!! 8 months!!!
At any rate, good luck on paying your fines and getting around without a license.

I did not know that you could file bankruptcy on parking tickets. I thought that you had to pay them or they would put you in jail.

You don't lose your license because of parking tickets.

Bankrupcy is not going to clear your parking tickets - you are stuck, bud.
