Foreclosure
Chapter 13 provides a way to reorganize and repay certain debts. Typically payments are set-up to be made to a trustee for a period of 36 to 60 months. Home mortgage arrears and IRS taxes can be paid in your plan and some cars refinanced; Chapter 13 can be used to stop foreclosures and repossessions. Credit card debt is frozen, and depending on the circumstances, only a small portion of unsecured debt may have to be paid back. The credit card debt that is paid back is paid back with no interest.
