A Plan can be modified but all financial information has to be reviewed by your attorney who will take care of it from there. You will need to provide your attorney will all the specifics as to your change in expenses and/or income. You may or may not have an extra fee from the attorney for doing this. You would have to check with your attorney. Some charge for certain things; some don't.

If I were you, I would think twice about opening up that can of worms unless your income has went down. Your lawyer will be your greatest source of information on this. I don't believe most trustee's like it when people modify there plans, especially 21 months into it.

My medical insurance has went up, gas, food ... etc., and I have not gotten a raise in 2 years. Let us know what your attorney says.
