I made an agreement to pay off my debt, i am currently waiting for the letter from them to sign. In the meantime, what do I write on my answer to the court? I am in NY.

Does your answer to the court have to be submitted right away or might you be able to wait until you have the paperwork from your creditor?

I would see if you can get a copy of the letter right away. Maybe they can fax it to you. You would want to include it with your responce to the court.

Here is an FAQ about "What is an Answer and a Default Judgment?"

http://www.helpfordebtors.com/node/4#4

It links to another website that provides much more information about filing an Answer. Here's that link (it's super-long and that sometimes causes problems or breaks the link, so check out the link above first):

Answer the court summons as if the settlement does not exist. They may be stalling to get a default judgement because you did not answer the summons.

There is no reason they can not fax it AND send one via mail.

That's what I was thinking. They said they couldn't fax it because it has to be reviewed or something like that.
