INSTRUCTIONS : CREDITORS HOLDING 20 LARGEST UNSECURED CLAIMS (Form B-4)


A Chapter 13 Bankruptcy is a debt repayment plan; in order to filing for this type of bankruptcy the individual must be employed so they can make regular payments to the Bankruptcy Court. The payments offered by the filer are then distributed among the individual’s various creditors. In most instances, an individual will be required to file this form of bankruptcy if they can pay at least 25% of their debts given their disposable income and savings. If the individual is approved for a chapter 13 filing, they will make payments for up to 5 years; the court will negotiate the filer to pay a portion of the total debts during this time.
