What is Chapter 7 Bankruptcy?
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a type of personal bankruptcy where an individual's debt is discharged or eliminated. Most debts are cancelled through this type of bankruptcy, creditors are required to stop all collection activity, and debtors are protected from wage garnishment, repossession, and other collection measures.
In Chapter 7 bankruptcy, debtors may be required to sell certain non-exempt assets to repay creditors. However, debtors are allowed to keep many of their assets including a car, home equity up to a certain amount, tools used to perform a job, and other property.
Eligibility for Chapter 7 bankruptcy is determined through a means test. Those who are not eligible for Chapter 7 bankruptcy may still be eligible for Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which stops foreclosure.
