In Chapter 13 bankruptcies, debtors pay some or all of their debts over the course of either three or five years according to a repayment plan. In this episode, we explain #Chapter13 #bankruptcy repayment plans, including the different classes of creditors, how each creditor must be treated under the payment plan, and how the length of the payment plan is determined.

I have to ask due to not finding info online. Is the base payment for the attorney depending on the attorney or is the payment set according to income/debt. I guess I'm asking if I shop around at different attorneys if I would be able to have a lower payment

Hi, Can you keep a modest value ($25,000) brokerage account in chapter 13 if you have a low paying part time income?

Great video and informative. However, the question remains about will there be any money from my income to live off of? If you're taking all of my disposable income, where's the money for food and such? Thanks again.

Thanks for your question, Bro. GenX72. Courts usually only allow Chapter 13 if there is enough disposable income after expenses to pay down the debt over the course of 3 to 5 years. - Kevin O'Flaherty

you mentioned that unsecured creditors would need to be paid interest under chapter 13 if they would have been paid in full under chapter 7. How is the interest rate decided? If its the same rate as they were charging before, then you really aren't accomplishing anything by filing chapter 13, it would seem, other than to avoid late fees, correct?

I have a question, I just filed chapter 13 today my number 1 goal is to stop the wage garnishment. I send the case number right away to our payroll department requesting to stop garnishment. But I remember our cut off payroll was yesterday October 15 and I just filed today October 16 for our October 21 paycheck. What if they tell me that they can't stop the garnishment for this coming payday because of the cut off?

I talked to a lawyer recently, I was told my 5 year monthly plan would be 1800 for 100k in debt. I have mortgage at 1100 a month and I make 1100 per bi weekly paycheck. Not only will I not have any money for other bills, food, gas, anything, I don't even make that. Does this sound right or should I talk to a different lawyer? Or is it because I have equity in home to pay debt in full? I did try to refinance my mortgage but I can't because of my credit score. Is there anything to be done?

If you have non-exempt equity in a home or mortgage arrearage, you have to pay the trustee to purchase the non-exempt equity/arrearage on top of the mortgage. If there is too much non-exempt equity and arrearage, you probably need to surrender the house to the trustee and move somewhere cheaper. Everyone wants to save their car, home, etc. but sometimes its not possible.

Filed chapter 13 on our mortgage because we got behind on payments. We received a payment plan and paid the trustee and bank every month until plan was paid in full. Once paid off we received a discharge yet still required to make monthly mortgage payments. Is this correct or should payments have stopped once discharged? Thank you!

Suppose you take all your debt, 100% of what you owe today, plus attorney's fees, and divide that number by 60 mos. Lets say that amt is $100K. That's $1666/month. Now, suppose your disposable income is way more than $1666 per month. What then? Do you pay $1666 per month, or more? Assuming these are all not priority or secured debts.

the amount of my remaining payments will pay off my principle balance in 54 months . my plan was for 60 months so I assume I finish early? All of the priority debts (2)are paid. The rest are unsecured debts and for unsecured I understand you pay no interest, correct?
