BNA Debt Solutions was the best choice I made. I filed my Consumer proposal in 2019 and completed it in 2022. I am so grateful to them for helping me get my debt repayment so easy. They helped me and made the process so easygoing. When in doubt, they were always there to answer my questions. I highly recommend BNA Debt Solutions to everyone out there who wants a fresh start and needs help to get out of debt. They have amazing Proposal programs with payments that suit your budget.

Majeed Khan

I was referred to BNA Debt Solutions and from my first contact with Nicole I felt at ease. There was no judgement and she answered every one of my questions thoroughly and I felt very comfortable with her. She made sure to show all options for our situation and met with us outside business hours to accommodate our needs. Barry also was very friendly and accommodating to our schedule and educated us on how easily debt can get out of hand. Before I reached out to BNA, I was stressed, anxious and felt like I had no solution to my debt problems but now 2 weeks later I feel like I can breathe again and there is a light at the end of the tunnel. We still have a long way to go but now I feel like I'm more in control of our situation. Don't delay if you are struggling with debt. Reach out! BNA has the answer and can send you in the right direction. I'm so glad I did!!!

Tina Timmons Designation

Facing financial challenges can feel disheartening, a sign of our personal failure. The staff of BNA understand that frustration and are the first to dispel the sense of disappointment. They instil an understanding of how circumstances, many beyond one’s control, can produce that initial impression of this letdown, and then persistently show us how to move beyond this sense of failure to guide us through the many steps needed to address the current state and how to move forward and regain control. The advice is excellent and the work done promptly and thoroughly - a steady influence at our time of need. BNA is worthy of their great reputation- I highly recommend them to guide you through your consumer proposal.

What is a Consumer Proposal and Why is it the Best Debt Relief Option?

A consumer proposal is a legal agreement to pay creditors back a portion of your unsecured debts. Unlike bankruptcy, it allows you to keep your assets and avoid wage garnishments. It’s a lifeline.

While bankruptcy may seem like the only option, a consumer proposal often offers less severe consequences. Consider using the legal process of a consumer proposal in Calgary as your path to financial freedom with dignity and peace of mind. You repay what you can afford in a way that suits your financial situation. Our team of Licensed Insolvency Trustees is here to make sure this process is smooth and respectful.

Find Financial Freedom and Keep Your Home

A consumer proposal offers relief as refreshing as a visit to Banff National Park—cut your debt by 70%, keep your home, and reclaim your peace of mind.

Step-by-Step Consumer Proposal Process: How a Consumer Proposal Can Help You Break Free from Debt

We understand that feeling overwhelmed by debt is challenging, but a consumer proposal offers a clear and manageable way forward. It involves a legally binding agreement to pay a fraction of what you owe, or minimum payments, with a focus on unsecured debts. Below, we’ve outlined the key steps in the process to give you a clear picture of how a consumer proposal works and the relief it can bring.

  • Review Your Finances: We assess your current debt situation, including tax debt and unsecured creditors, to gain a full understanding of your financial standing.

  • Develop Your Proposal: Together, we’ll create a manageable debt repayment option that suits your budget.

  • File Your Proposal: Our trusted Licensed Insolvency Trustee firm handles all the necessary paperwork and submits your proposal to creditors on your behalf.

  • Complete Payment Plan: Follow the agreed-upon plan, making affordable payments while keeping your assets protected.

Inclusion of Unsecured Debt: What to Expect?

Unsecured debts, like credit card bills, payday loans, and personal loans, are typically included in consumer proposals. Unlike secured debts, these debts are not tied to assets, which means you won’t risk losing your home or car. By filing a consumer proposal, you negotiate with creditors to accept partial repayment, relieving you of overwhelming financial stress.

Am I Eligible to file a Consumer Proposal Or Should I Go for Personal Bankruptcy?

Choosing between a consumer proposal and personal bankruptcy is a big decision. Both options help manage overwhelming debt but work in different ways. Understanding your eligibility and the pros and cons of each can make a huge difference.

Consumer Proposal Eligibility

  • Unsecured Debts: Consumer proposals can cover debts like credit cards, personal loans, and tax debt from the CRA.

  • Debt Limit: If your unsecured debt is up to $250,000 (excluding your mortgage), a consumer proposal could be a good fit.

  • Able to Pay: You should be able to make monthly payments to the creditors through the proposal.

Requirements Under Canadian Law
Both options are governed by the Bankruptcy and Insolvency Act. At BNA Debt Solutions, our Licensed Insolvency Trustees are here to guide you through these legal processes. Consulting with our team will help you determine the best path forward for your financial situation.

Stop Collection Calls, Protect Your Assets, and Take Back Control

Debt often leads to wage garnishments, repossession threats, and even legal actions by collection agencies. You don’t have to face this alone.

A consumer proposal can halt these pressures. This legally binding agreement allows you to consolidate your unsecured debts into one monthly payment. It offers creditor protection, stops harassment, and keeps your assets safe from repossession.

Benefits of Consumer Proposals:

  • Retain Assets: Protect your house and car.

  • One Fixed Payment: Manageable monthly payments.

  • Interest-Free: No more interest on your debt.

  • Avoid Bankruptcy: Maintain a stable credit rating.

Our team at BNA Debt Solutions can show you how consumer proposals provide a fresh start and eliminate debt, without the stigma of declaring bankruptcy. We ensure the process is smooth and respectful, focusing on solutions that fit your financial situation.

Your Debt Relief Questions, Answered by the Pros! (FAQs)

What are the alternatives to consumer proposals in Calgary?
  • Debt consolidation: consolidating all your debts into one single monthly payment loan can give you some breathing room.

  • Bankruptcy: filing for bankruptcy is always recommended as a last resort, only after all other debt management options have been thoroughly explored.

  • Credit counselling: working with a credit counsellor can help you develop a plan to pay off your debts and improve your financial situation.

How can a consumer proposal help me deal with high interest rates and CRA penalties?

A consumer proposal is a legally binding agreement, managed by a Licensed Insolvency Trustee, to reduce your overall debt and freeze interest, including penalties from the CRA. It protects you through a stay of proceedings, stopping creditor actions such as collection calls, wage garnishments, or lawsuits while allowing you to retain your assets and focus on repayment.

How a consumer proposal can help rebuild your finances?

A consumer proposal helps rebuild finances by reducing your outstanding debt, consolidating payments into one manageable monthly amount, and stopping creditor actions like collection calls and wage garnishments. It protects your assets and offers a clear path to becoming debt-free without bankruptcy.

What is the role of equity, assets, and liabilities in debt management?

Your equity (value of assets minus liabilities) and total assets significantly determine your debt relief options. For instance, a consumer proposal helps protect your home’s equity, whereas bankruptcy may require you to surrender non-exempt assets.

How does surplus income impact bankruptcy or debt relief plans?

Surplus income is calculated based on your income exceeding a government-set threshold. In bankruptcy, you may need to pay additional amounts if your income is higher. However, in a consumer proposal, payments are fixed and don’t penalize you for surplus income.

What happens if I fall into arrears or default on my debt?

Falling into arrears means missing one or more monthly debt payments, while a default typically refers to failing to meet your debt obligations for an extended period. Defaults can lead to severe consequences such as wage garnishment, repossession of assets, or legal actions initiated by creditors or collection agencies. A Licensed Insolvency Trustee (LIT) can help you explore options like a consumer proposal to avoid these outcomes and protect your assets.
