Trying to do the best for every client.

The attorney will explain the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy as it applies to your situation. In general, however, you could qualify for a Chapter 13 if you can satisfy the following three requirements

  1. You must have a regular source of income. Because you must be able to meet the terms of your repayment plan, the Code requires that your income be "stable and regular" if you wish to file a Chapter 13.
  2. You must have enough disposable income. You must have income left over after your expenses for basic human needs each month to allow you to make your monthly payments in a timely fashion under your repayment plan.
  3. Your debts must not be too high. If your secured debts (which include loans you have secured by liens on your property, such as your home and auto loans, and even IRS tax liens) exceed $922,975, you are not eligible for a Chapter 13. Also, your unsecured debts may not exceed $307,675 (unsecured debts are debts for which you have not pledged any of your property as collateral, such as most credit card debt, personal loans, and utility bills).

Generally, a Chapter 7 filing is appropriate when most of your debts are unsecured, such as credit card debts and medical bills. Exemptions vary by state but typically include your residence, certain items of personal property, tools and work equipment and your vehicle. Many Chapter 7 debtors find that exemptions protect all of their assets.
