Answer:

Whilst bankrupt you are obligated to report any financial changes to the Receiver in your bankruptcy, so what you are asking is a change and does need to be reported.

As for receiving DLA and being bankrupt, the bankruptcy should not effect this.

You are allowed access to up to £500 of credit without the Receiver's permission, however if you have taken out credit whilst bankrupt and know you could not afford to repay it, one may ask why you did this, and if it exceeds the amount allowed, then yes, you could receive a restriction order.

I cannot say for sure if you will receive a restriction order, but you may want to make the Receiver in your bankruptcy aware of the new debt and then it will be their decision as to what to do.

Thank you for letting me help you.
