zz Unless there is litigation involving objections to the discharge, the debtor will usually automatically receive a discharge. The Chapter 7 discharge comes about two months after the meeting of creditors and the bankruptcy courts will automatically mail out the order of discharge to the individual debtors.
Additionally, the clerk of the bankruptcy court will mail a copy of the order of discharge to all creditors, the U.S. trustee, the trustee in the case, and the trustee's attorney, if any. The notice, which is simply a copy of the final order of discharge, informs creditors generally that the debts owed to them have been discharged and that they should not attempt any further collection. They are cautioned in the notice that continuing collection efforts could subject them to punishment for contempt. Any inadvertent failure on the part of the clerk to send the debtor or any creditor a copy of the discharge order promptly within the time required by the rules does not affect the validity of the order granting the discharge.
If for some reason you do not receive your discharge letter, you can get a copy from the court where your bankruptcy case was heard.
