    Default Child Support Arrearages in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

    My question involves bankruptcy in the state of: IL

    I have file Chap 13 and need to know how/can we put the arrearage and court fees into the chapter 13 plan? When/If I can put the arrearage and court fees into the plan does the plan make the payment for the arrearage and I would continue to make current payments?

    Are you filing it yourself or having an attorney do it for you? See if this link helps. It would appear that child support is exempt from Chapter 13 but you know your specific situation. http://bankruptcy.findlaw.com/bankru...ing-debts.html

    Your Chapter 13 Plan can and must provide for all back support payments up to the filing date. The back support is a priority claim and, unless the recipient of the support agrees otherwise, must be paid through the Plan. Further all future support payments must be made directly to the recipient as ordered by the State court. Failure to remain post petition current is grounds for the dismissal of the bk.
