There are many components to a successful Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing. Gathering simple information on bankruptcy, consulting bankruptcy attorneys, retaining a bankruptcy lawyer, and continuously going through your salary and debts are just a few facets of a bankruptcy. What frequently gets lost in the fold of all the aforementioned mayhem is the actual filing of the bankruptcy petition.
Your Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition will consist of the following information:
Complete and precise list of all your debts and lenders to whom you owe said debts to.
Complete and correct list of all your recent income.
The judge in your bankruptcy case will review your petition and decide whether or not you are eligible for Chapter 7 bankruptcy based on the "means examination." The means examination is administered to Chapter 7 bankruptcy applicants as per the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005.
