Chapter 13 provides many advantages over Chapter 7 for individuals filing for bankruptcy. Most notably, the ability to save the debtor’s home from foreclosure. In addition, secured debts can be rescheduled and extended. This often makes payments smaller, making the debt more manageable.

 

Any person with a regular income is eligible to file Chapter 13 as long as their unsecured debts are less than $360,475 and secured debts are less than $1,081,400. This includes individuals who are self-employed or operating an unincorporated business, such as a sole proprietorship.

 

Similar to Chapters 7 and 11, Chapter 13 cases begin with the filing of a petition by the debtor.
