If your Ch. 13 plan has been confirmed, and I assume it has after 2 years, what you do with the assets you retained under your plan should not require an adjustment of the confirmed plan payments.
In my district, in eastern PA, the Ch. 13 trustee is proactive, and if a sale of the house is... Read more »

My son is the defendant of a multi million dollar civil suit. He is a broke college student. If found guilty can he file bankruptcy to wipe out the debt?
There are some things that can be objected to and then cannot be discharged in Bankruptcy. You might contact a BK attorney with more specificity to get a more detailed analysis. I think it might be worth try and then hope no one objects but without more facts it's hard to know for sure without... Read more »
At home with me. Will the courts consider her income as part of mine? Even though i do not use her money as contribution to my household?
If you schedule your sole income and your sole expenses on Schedules I and J, your daughter's income from her employment should not be factored in. The corollary to that assumption is that your daughter earns just enough to pay for things like her vehicle, insurance, food ( at school or her... Read more »

When you file for bankruptcy relief, you must file Schedules listing all of your debts and assets. And you must sign those Schedules under penalty of perjury. So, no, you cannot leave your student loans, or any other debt (or claim against you even if you don't think you owe it), "out... Read more »
All payments still count toward debt.

There is no best way!
Personal loans to people you know (and obviously care about) can be reached by the trustee and clawed back into the Chapter 7 estate. Should you lie about in on your schedules is is bankruptcy fraud.
I have never dealt with crypto currency in any 7 or 11 I... Read more »

You are entitled to the exemptions either under the statutes of California or under the United States, whichever is opted. Specific answers about crypto currency are beyond the pale of this type of website

I have 2 lawsuits which is the reason why I want to payoff those 2 debts because I cannot file Ch. 7 till June of 2021.
