Frequently Asked Questions
What are the income limits for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in Massachusetts?
To qualify for Chapter 7 in Massachusetts you must pass the means test which compares your income to the state median income for your household size.

What property can I keep in a Massachusetts bankruptcy?
Massachusetts offers generous exemptions that allow you to keep a home with up to 500000 dollars of equity and a vehicle worth up to 7500 dollars. You can also protect retirement accounts and some personal property. You may choose the federal exemptions instead if they are more favorable for your situation.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in Massachusetts?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for 7 years. In Massachusetts you can rebuild credit by making timely payments on secured debts and new credit accounts after the discharge.
