Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy in Florida?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy wipes out most unsecured debts but requires you to pass a means test. Chapter 13 bankruptcy involves a 3 to 5 year repayment plan. Florida does not require credit counseling before filing but you must complete it within 180 days before filing.
Can I keep my house if I file for bankruptcy in West Melbourne?
Florida has an unlimited homestead exemption for your primary residence if you have lived there for at least 1215 days. This means you can often keep your home in bankruptcy. However, there are limits on acreage and property value for non-homestead land.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in Florida?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. You can start rebuilding your credit immediately after your case is discharged.
