Question: how much does it cost to file for chapter 7?
Answer: For a Chapter 7 case, the fee is $335. For a Chapter 13 case, the fee is $310. The Bankruptcy Trustee may charge a fee of $15 to $20 when you file, as well. You may request to pay the filing fees in installments; most courts will allow it if you can show it would be a financial hardship to pay all at once.
