Frequently Asked Questions
What is the means test for California bankruptcy?
The means test compares your income to the median income for a California household of your size. If your income is below the median, you may qualify for Chapter 7. If it is above, you may need to file Chapter 13 and repay some debts over 3 to 5 years.
What property can I keep in a San Rafael bankruptcy?
California allows you to use either the state exemptions or the federal exemptions. California exemptions protect equity in your home up to a certain amount, a vehicle, household goods, and retirement accounts. A lawyer can help you choose the best set of exemptions for your situation.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in California?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. However, you can begin rebuilding your credit immediately after your debts are discharged.
