Q: Bk chap 13 query
Prior to my chapter 13 filing and the eventual implementation of a repay plan in place I was not a Social Security recipiant. Since the filing, and with a plan in place (Ch. 13) I remain gainfully employed but also now recieving 92% of my Social Security (because I filed one year shy of my 66th birthday which is my full retirement (FRA) age) which is roughly $1600.00 a month with a pension in place that I have yet to withdraw from. Am I to inform my bk lawyer of the SS supplement, and will my monthly pay to the trustee go up?
A: Consult your lawyer first. I think the trustee needs to be advised of the supplement, but I do not believe it is subject to seizure by the trustee for a variety of reasons!
