How Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Works in Indiana

Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a debt restructuring plan that allows you, as the debtor, the opportunity to consolidate your debts into one reasonable monthly payment. Your payment will be based on the amount that you are able to pay. Some debts (secured debts, for example) must be paid in full by the end of the bankruptcy process.

These debts may include:

  • Auto loans
  • Certain tax debts
  • Certain student loan debts
  • Unpaid child support

As you file under Chapter 13, you will be able to take note of the unique advantages within bankruptcy. Lien stripping is one such benefit that involves the removal of a second mortgage if you have more than one. If you are past due on your automobile loan, it may be possible to repay the value of the vehicle, rather than the value of the note.
