Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Missouri means test for bankruptcy?
The means test compares your income to the median income for a Missouri household of your size. If your income is below the median you likely qualify for Chapter 7. If it is above you may need to file Chapter 13 and repay some debts through a plan.
What property can I keep in a Missouri bankruptcy?
Missouri allows you to use state exemptions to protect property such as your home equity up to fifteen thousand dollars and a vehicle up to three thousand dollars. You can also protect household goods and tools of your trade up to certain limits. A lawyer can help you apply these exemptions to your assets.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in Missouri?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy remains on your credit report for ten years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy stays for seven years. The impact lessens over time and you can rebuild credit with responsible habits.
