Average days between signing & filing

[appleae]

We are signing our Ch13 petition 11/23. Can we expect that our petition will be filed by the end of this month, or within 4 business days? We are not familiar with how much additional work there is for the attorney in order to get the petition filed after we've signed it.

I would think that if the petition doesn't get filed until December, then the trustee payment would be due in the beginning of January and then the December mortgage payment would be rolled into the plan. Am I on the right track?

Did your attorney or the office paralegal give you an idea of when your case will be filed when you were there for the forms signing? If not, then contact your attorney by phone or email and ask what is your expected filing date.

We haven't signed yet.

I should re-phrase the question as, "How many days did it take your attorney to file your BK after you signed the petition?"
