Did u have leaf relief?

You need a magistrate summons and a complaint in summary ejectment and a servicemember relief form. 

If they are in need of debt relief which is what motivates just about 100% of lease option candidates they are going to give you everything you want to know.

I feel like I’m missing something and don’t want to miss out on possible tax relief or there to be another way.

The bankruptcy laws don't offer them any relief.

So it looks like I can avoid having to use secondary private funding which is a huge relief. 

When my lender tried to get me preapproved for my conventional loan wells fargo initially said "we won't let him get another personal loan because he just refinanced his VA loan 7 months ago" my lender politely told them to read the soldiers and sailors relief act, and my copy of orders with appropriate date etc, and to process the application, 1 day later I was qualified.

I always (only had to do it twice so far) feel a great sense of relief when it's over and wish I'd started the process sooner!

This is a rare occurrence though.If a borrower is in an active bankruptcy (Regardless of chapter) the only way there could be a sale is if the creditor filed and received relief from stay to proceed with foreclosure sale.

Well, Like HAMP modifications, Federal law prohibits the lender from taking any action if the borrower is subject to bankruptcy protection so, if they did file bankruptcy and it was not dismissed, my guess is the lender moved for relief and was granted relief to proceed with foreclosure.
