Get more time to pay. Chapter 13 bankruptcy offers unique debt solutions not available in Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Yes, you'll pay into a repayment plan. But your money will go toward the debts that matter most--like your mortgage, car loan, support obligations, and taxes. Remaining debts, such as credit card balances, medical bills, and utility bills, usually get only a fraction of what you owe.
