New job during C13

[biggomez777]

If I were to enter into a C13, and either changed jobs or got an additional part time job, would that change what I have to pay to the trustee? Anyone run into this in the past? Note: neither of these would make it so I could get out of the debt I'm in currently.

It possibly could, depending on a few things. It varies from district to district. Some require that you report all increases in income, others don't. Yet other's on this board have reported that their trustee only requires them to report an increase in income over a certain percentage.

Also depends on your % of payback to your creditors. If you are at 100% payback then you should be fine regardless of local customs in your area.

Search around on these boards and you'll find lots of posts about this topic

If you filed Chapter 13 and were in a Plan and changed jobs where you made more income, took on an additional job or lost a job with a decrease in income, you would need to check with your attorney for further instructions as to your specific situation. The best thing to do before you file is ask the attorney you retain what you should do as to any income increases or decreases during your Plan years and whether or not you are required to submit tax returns each year to your Trustee after they are filed with your State and the IRS.
