What happens now?

[alana]

I had my 341 yesterday. It was very quick and easy. My attorney said that she has spoken to the trustee and he saw no problems with my case.

What happens between now and confirmation? How long does it take to get confirmed? Will he want paperwork to prove my expenses? What might he ask for?

Thanks

I could be wrong but the time to question expenses and such would be at the 341. At ours the usual quick questions under oath and the trustee wished us good luck. We did have an objection, by the trustee, later on but turned out it was actually for another case and not us so our confirmation was held up. We did go to court as our atty forgot to tell us not to bother and was enlightened by the process. When our case did come up the trustee wanted to put it off but the judge said no and would hear the objection now. Trustee stated objection over some old cc debt but the judge dismissed it and confirmed the plan. We didn't say a word and weren't called on or anything and that took less than five minutes. Spoke with the trustee afterward and told him were available to answer any questions he might have as we had nothing to hide and he was very cordial and said that the plan was confirmed and, once again, wished us luck. All in all things have gone very smoothly for us.


This is from lrprn on another post:

Here's the Ch 13 timeline for filing objections and claims. (Note: the 341 date is the first one set by the court. Even if your 341 is moved to a later date, the original 341 date is the one used.)

30 Days after your 341 - The bankruptcy trustee and your creditors have to object to all of your exemption claims within 30 days after the conclusion of the meeting of your creditors.

45 Days after your 341 - Your creditors have the right to object to confirmation of your case, but your attorney will likely have resolved any objections to confirmation before this date.

60 Days after your 341 - Creditors have 60 days from the first set 341 meeting date to file an adversary proceeding.

90 Days After your 341 - All of your creditors (except for government entities) must file their proofs of claim (these are documents your creditors submit to the court specifying how much you owe them) within 90 days after the first date set for your creditor meeting if they wish to share in the payments from your case.

180 Days After Your Case is Filed - Government entities that have claims against you (such as the IRS) have 180 days after the filing of your case to submit their proofs of claim.
