You receive your property back in exchange. You put out (and the court must accept) a repayment plan through bankruptcy. Most plans have a three- to five-year lifespan. You pay a predetermined monthly payment to the bankruptcy trustee assigned to your case each month during the repayment period. The trustee then disperses the money to your creditors.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, most consumers are interested in learning what their monthly payment will be. Remember that developing a repayment plan that complies with all regulations is difficult; in fact, bankruptcy attorneys employ software to construct them.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The general application of exemptions is as follows. First, it&#8217;s crucial to realize that in a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/scottharrislaw.com\/chapter-13-bankruptcy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chapter 13 case<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, creditors must receive the same amount of money\u2014or more\u2014than they would in a Chapter 7 case. Therefore, in a Chapter 13 case, creditors should at least receive the same amount as they would have in a Chapter 7 case if the Chapter 7 trustee had been permitted to sell the property for the benefit of creditors.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So how do you determine how much should go to creditors? In reality, it&#8217;s quite simple. It represents the cost of the debtor&#8217;s nonexempt assets. If a debtor files for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, they must pay to keep the property that would have otherwise been forfeited.<\/span><\/p><p><a href=\"https:\/\/scottharrislaw.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get in touch with our Oklahoma Bankruptcy lawyer<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to discuss further information regarding this subject.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2c3e19f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2c3e19f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Chapter 13 Bankruptcy\n<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4d88656 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4d88656\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-1152\" title=\"chapter 13 bankruptcy exemptions oklahoma city\" src=\"https:\/\/scottharrislaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/chapter-13-bankruptcy-attorneys-300x196.webp\" alt=\"chapter 13 bankruptcy exemptions oklahoma city\" width=\"450\" height=\"295\" srcset=\"https:\/\/scottharrislaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/chapter-13-bankruptcy-attorneys-300x196.webp 300w, https:\/\/scottharrislaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/chapter-13-bankruptcy-attorneys-1024x670.webp 1024w, https:\/\/scottharrislaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/chapter-13-bankruptcy-attorneys-768x503.webp 768w, https:\/\/scottharrislaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/chapter-13-bankruptcy-attorneys-1536x1006.webp 1536w, https:\/\/scottharrislaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/chapter-13-bankruptcy-attorneys-2048x1341.webp 2048w, https:\/\/scottharrislaw.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/chapter-13-bankruptcy-attorneys-1200x786.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/>Most people file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy because they earn too much money to qualify under the Chapter 7 means test, they don&#8217;t want to lose their home or car after falling behind on their payments, or they want to avoid wage garnishments and other forms of debt\u00a0harassment from creditors while paying back support arrears or recent tax debt over five years.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other advantages not available under Chapter 7 include &#8220;lien stripping,&#8221; which eliminates junior mortgages on real estate, and &#8220;cramdowns,&#8221; which lower monthly payments on auto loans.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-65fab30 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"65fab30\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Oklahoma Bankruptcy Exemptions\n<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8da3ea0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8da3ea0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both formal and informal property exemptions exist in the Sooner State.

The trustee can&#8217;t touch your equity if you have less of it. Most owners have essentially no equity in new cars because these debts are amortized (interest is paid first). The equity proportion is mostly meaningless for used autos because they often have little financial value.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Pension plans: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Earned IRAs, 401(k)s, and other retirement accounts are totally excluded, regardless of how much money they include. Teachers&#8217; retirement plans and other defined benefit plans are totally exempt as well.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Public benefits:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Social Security, VA disability, and other government programs are substantially reliant on the contributions of many people. Technically, these benefits are shielded from bankruptcy. An experienced attorney can help you effectively protect this money. Benefits from life insurance are also excluded.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Personal property:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Exempt items include home pets, animals, clothing, technology, furniture, jewelry, and other items. In several categories, there is a\u00a0dollar restriction. However, the majority of personal belongings are not worth much financially.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Wages currently earned:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Debtors are permitted to retain up to 75% of their wages from the three months prior to filing. Judges frequently make exceptions for hardships, allowing debtors to keep even more of their money.<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Federal exemptions may be preferred by debtors in some states above state exemptions. Oklahoma isn\u2019t one of these states.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Unofficial Exemptions<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The non exempt property is owned by the bankruptcy trustee. It is now included in the bankruptcy estate. Therefore, the trustee must first submit a motion for turnover in order to seize nonexempt property. An attorney has an opportunity to halt liquidation with the help of this motion.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Money in a savings account, is frequently the target of trustees for confiscation. The mootness doctrine occasionally applies if the funds are gone when the trustee files a motion, which they frequently are. However, keep in mind that significant withdrawals from savings and checking accounts right before declaring bankruptcy may be considered suspiciously. When thinking about bankruptcy, consult your attorney before making any significant transfers or acquisitions.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact Scott Harris Law to learn more on how to protect your property using exemptions in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy, as well as Bankruptcy protection.

There are a lot of intricate regulations that affect a repayment plan.

Then, multiply the amount of your monthly payments by the quantity of months in your repayment schedule.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 2: Finding the worth of your nonexempt assets. Using the state&#8217;s bankruptcy exemptions, each state permits filers to preserve a certain amount of property. The assets that a bankruptcy exemption cannot protect are known as nonexempt assets. Your repayment plan in Chapter 13 must include paying your creditors the worth of your nonexempt assets.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 3: Choosing which debts you must completely repay as part of a Chapter 13 plan is the third step. These debts include past-due car, if you intend to maintain the vehicle,\u00a0and mortgage payments, current income tax debt, and support arrears.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You&#8217;ll have three numbers in front of you once everything is finished. You will be obliged to pay the larger of your disposable income or the worth of your nonexempt assets plus the amount of the debts that must be paid in full throughout the period of your plan. You will meet what is referred to as the &#8220;best-effort&#8221; rule in Chapter 13 bankruptcy by adhering to this method.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remember that figuring out a payback schedule is challenging.
