The Bankruptcy Process
How Long Will It Take?
In a Chapter 7 case, the debtor will typically receive an order discharging him from his debts within 3–4 months. Chapter 13 usually requires payments over a 3 year period (with some payment plans extending to 5 years) before a debtor will receive an order discharging him from his debts. There is no established or predictable timetable for completing a bankruptcy case.
