You want to submit a time-barred debt claim as part of a file to which you do not yet have access?
To file a time-barred debt claim in a JRP to which you do not yet have access, you first need to find the file in question. To do this, you must first click the 'Search for files' tab in the header.
There are various fields that allow you to find a file:
- Name of the enterprise
- Company number
- Post code/place
- Type of proceeding
By default, the system searches the bankruptcy files. To find a file in JRP, you have to change the type of 'proceeding' at the bottom of the menu.
After finding the file in JRP for which you wish to submit a time-barred debt claim, click on the option 'Upload debt claim'.
You will then find your submitted time-barred debt claim in the 'My added items' tab in the file.
Do you wish to submit a time-barred debt claim in a file to which you already have access?
Go to the 'My files' tab to find the file in question. Click the 'Upload debt claim option.
You will then find your submitted time-barred debt claim in the 'My added items' tab in the file.
Please note: submitting a time-barred declaration does not affect the composition of the list of creditors in the JRP.
Comment:
Unlike bankruptcy files where you automatically have access to the file as a creditor once you have submitted a debt claim, when it comes to a JRP you must submit a separate request for access to the file. This is therefore independent of the possibility of submitting a time-barred debt claim.
