We have our proposed chapter 13 payment and I have paid it for 2 months already. It is doable. I’m just concerned that it will go up after 341 meeting in May. I know it is the trustee’s job to get as much money as possible so I was curious how it went for others. Does it always go,up? Thanks in advance!

Hi - no, mine did not go up at all. Did your attorney feel confident about what was proposed? Are you just nervous?Filed Chapter 13 - 07/20/12

They tried to raise our payment because we had made a mistake on our budget and they wanted $200 more a month. They did not get it since we are paying 100% back over 5 yrs our attorney was able to stop them from taking it. It was not a big deal my attorney just responded and that was that. I was totally stressed out about because I didn't want to loose another $200 a month because the amount we have to live on isn't great especially since I have a second job with variable income (like NONE now with Covid19).I am not an expert. I just share my experiences in the Wonderful Wacky World of Chapter 13! Filed 3-30-18 Confirmed 7-11-18 Discharged 6-8-22

So, while my situation is not typical.... just make sure your numbers are spot on and you don't have anything in there that's gonna confuse the hell out of people. My original attorney assured me that my district was easy on 13's and that it would be no big deal.... mmm hmmmm....

NoMoney30, that sucks big time. I interviewed a half-dozen attorneys before I selected mine; she took her time and damn she knew her stuff. The time between our first meeting during the interview process to when I finally filed ended up being about two and a half years, the last seven months of which was doing the research and then writing up the case. I cannot say this strong enough, a really good attorney makes all the difference in the world for Chapter 13 filing.Latent car nut.
