I am in the final months of a 37 month CH13 and I wonder if there can be
creditors to be paid who did not file when I started the CH13. Let me
explain.
#1 When I filed I listed ALL of my creditors and only about 75% of them
filed for reimbursement under the Chapter13 plan. Can the creditors who did
not ask to be included come after me when I get my discharge?
#2 I missed one payment. I did not do it on purpose but when I got my
last statement from the trustee I looked it over and realized a payment was
missing. I did not have the money to pay it so I decided I would send extra
each month to cover it. No notice from the Trustee about this -- is this a
problem??
#3 When I started the CH13 my mortgage was $727 and it is now $900
(taxes). My health insurance was $297 a month and it is now $822 (got
older). I called my attorney and he said to just try to make it up
somehow. I asked him if I could just drop the 13 and make it a 7 and he
said no because the Ch7 trustee who I went before first decided he would
take all of my retirement fund to pay off my debts if I did not do a Ch13.
So now I am stuck borrowing from friends and renting a bedroom out in my
home to make grocery money. My income is fixed monthly income so there is
no way to make it up so I have borrowed money from friends and relatives to
cover living expenses.(The friends know they will in all likelihood never be
repaid completely) I am in the DC/MD/VA area.
Any ideas anyone?? I know I am almost done (4 months to go) but I do not
want them to extend this thing. Can they do that???
If I just drop out can the creditors take my house (not in default now)??
Can they take over my retirement income??
Thanks all......................
