Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Lawyer – Augusta Georgia
Your Chapter 13 plan must pay certain debts called priority debts in full. These debts, include child support and alimony, wages you owe to employees, and certain tax obligations. They are called priority debts because they're considered sufficiently important to jump to the head of the bankruptcy repayment line.
Regular payments on secured debts, such as a car loan or mortgage, as well as repayment of any arrearages on the debts the amount by which you've fallen behind in your payments must be included in your plan.
Under the plan any disposable income left after making the required payments goes towards repaying your unsecured debts, such as credit card or medical bills. These debts need not be repaid in full or at all, in some cases. You just have to show that you are putting any remaining income towards their repayment.
Your earnings and your debt determine the length of your repayment plan. If your average monthly income over the six months prior to the date you filed for bankruptcy is higher than the median income for your state, you will have to propose a five year plan. If your income is lower than the median, you may propose a three year plan.
