Well, it seems you are in quite the dilema. As far as getting a loan is concerned, from the information you provided (no documented income, low credit scores) a cosigner is very likely going to be your only option to get a loan from a bank. Another option you may want to consider is borrowing the funds from a family member or friend, but make sure that you draw up a contract to protect both of you.

I'm not really sure why you think you would need to declare bankruptcy, as you don't have all that much debt. Judging by your credit scores, I'm going to assume that you have collections out there. If you do, in fact, have collections, I would contact the companies and see if you can negotiate a lower amount due and/or a payment plan.

Hope this helps - If you have any more questions, just ask!
