A wage order is a form that authorizes the Trustee to take your bankruptcy payment directly from your paycheck. Everyone who is employed is required to be under a wage order. You will fill out the wage order form and submit it to the Trustee. The Trustee will then submit that to the Court and the Court will issue an Order to your employer to withhold the funds from your check. You do not need to provide a copy of the wage order to your employer. The wage order form can be found on our resource links page.
