A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a repayment arrangement in which you propose to repay your creditors over the next three to five years. Some creditors will receive more than others. You can use a Chapter 13 to catch up on your house payments, pay off your car, pay back the IRS and even repay back child support. At the end of the case, you receive a discharge that wipes out any remaining debt that you would have discharged in a Chapter 7.

Are your creditors taking money out of your paycheck or your bank account?
