Voluntary Petition for Individuals Filing for Bankruptcy 12/15

The bankruptcy forms use you and Debtor 1 to refer to a debtor filing alone. A married couple may file a bankruptcy case together—called a joint

case—and in joint cases, these forms use you to ask for information from both debtors. For example, if a form asks, “Do you own a car,” the answer

would be yes if either debtor owns a car. When information is needed about the spouses separately, the form uses Debtor 1 and Debtor 2 to distinguish

between them. In joint cases, one of the spouses must report information as Debtor 1 and the other as Debtor 2. The same person must be Debtor 1 in

all of the forms.

Be as complete and accurate as possible. If two married people are filing together, both are equally responsible for supplying correct information. If

more space is needed, attach a separate sheet to this form. On the top of any additional pages, write your name and case number (if known). Answer

every question.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT BANKRUPTCY ASSISTANCE 

SERVICESFROMAN ATTORNEY OR BANKRUPTCY PETITION PREPARER 

If you decide to seek bankruptcy relief, you can represent yourself, you can hire an attorney to represent you ior you can 

get help in some localities from a bankruptcy petition preparer who is not an attorney. THE LAW REQUIRES AN 

ATTORNEY OR BANKRUPTCY PETITION PREPARER TO GIVE YOU A WRITTEN CONTRACT SPECIFYING WHAT 

THE ATTORNEY OR BANKRUPTCY PETITION PREPARER WILL DO FOR YOU AND HOW MUCH IT WILL COST. 

Ask to see the contract before you hire anyone. 

The following information helps you understand what must be done in a routine bankruptcy case to help you evaluate how 

much service you need. Although bankruptcy can be complex, many cases are routine. 

Before filing a bankruptcy case, either you or your attorney should analyze your eligibility for different forms of debt relief 

available under the Bankruptcy Code and which form of relief is most likely to be beneficial for you. Be sure you 

understand the relief you can obtain and its limitations. To file a bankruptcy case, documents called a Petition, Schedules 

and Statement of Financial Affairs, as well as in some cases a Statement of Intention need to be prepared correctly and 

filed with the bankruptcy- couit:ou will have to pay a filing fee to the bankruptcy court. Once your case starts, you will 

have to attend the required first meeting of the creditors where you may be questioned by a court official called a 'trustee' 

and by creditors. 

If you choose to file a chapter 7 case, you may be asked by a creditor to reaffirm a debt. You may want help deciding 

whether to do so. A creditor is not permitted to coerce you into reaffirming your debts. 

If you choose to file a chapter 13 case in which you repay your creditors what you can afford over 3 to 5 years, you may 

also want help with preparing your chapter 13 plan and with the confirmation hearing on your plan which will be before a 

bankruptcy judge. 

If you select another type of relief under the Bankruptcy Code other than chapter 7 or chapter 13, you will want to find out 

what should be done from someone familiar with that type of relief. 

Your bankruptcy case may also involve litigation. You are generally permitted to represent yourself in litigation in 

bankruptcy court, but only attorneys, not bankruptcy petition eparers, can give you legN advice.
