Frequently Asked Questions
What are the income limits for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in New Jersey?
To qualify for Chapter 7 in New Jersey you must pass the means test which compares your income to the state median for your household size. The median income for a single person in New Jersey is around 70,000 dollars as of 2024. If your income is above the median you may still qualify after deducting allowable expenses.
How long does a bankruptcy stay on my credit report in New Jersey?
A Chapter 7 bankruptcy stays on your credit report for 10 years from the filing date. A Chapter 13 bankruptcy remains for 7 years. However you can start rebuilding your credit soon after your case is discharged.
What property can I keep if I file bankruptcy in New Jersey?
New Jersey uses its own exemption system not the federal exemptions. You can protect up to 15,000 dollars of equity in your home and up to 1,000 dollars of equity in a vehicle. Other exemptions cover household goods, retirement accounts, and tools of your trade up to certain limits.
