The debtor must begin making payments to the Chapter 13 Trustee AT THE LATEST within 30 days after the debtor’s case is filed with the court. IF NO PAYMENTS ARE MADE WITHIN THIS 30 DAY PERIOD, THE TRUSTEE WILL CERTIFY YOUR CASE FOR DISMISSAL AND THE BANKRUPTCY COURT WILL DISMISS YOUR CASE WITHOUT A HEARING. In order to keep this from happening, we advise our clients to start payments within 2 to 3 weeks after the case is filed. The payments must be made regularly, usually on a weekly, bi-weekly, twice a month or monthly basis. If employed, the Trustee requires the payments to be made by the debtor’s employer, through a payroll deduction. Normally, two to three payroll deductions will be made from your check before your court date.
