"Arizona Chapter 13 Information"
Basic Chapter 13 information and forms are available from Arizona bankruptcy courts. Be aware that official
instructions provided by the court are significantly different that personal legal advice. Typically the determination of "disposable income" is fertile ground
for creditor objections. Amendments to regulation of Ch. 13 payments are now pending before Congress. In
particular, these pending amendments incorporate a universal standard for living allowances, rather than allow
judges discretion to adjust payments for the needs of individuals.

a limited exception for certified legal document preparers provided that the services performed are in
