1. Failure to submit required documentation could result in a deficiency. If you receive a deficiency notice in the mail, review the notice for the deadline to submit the required information to cure the deficiency.
2. If you filed a request for a waiver of the filing fee or for payment of the fee in installments, you will receive an order approving or denying the request in the mail.
3. A notice of “Meeting of Creditors”, also known as “341 meeting” will be scheduled and notice will be sent in the mail. The 341 meeting will be held virtually by Zoom and will be conducted by the trustee assigned to the case. Instructions for joining the meeting are included in the 341 notice. At the meeting the debtor may be asked about their property, debts, income and expenses. More information on the Meeting of Creditors can be found on the U.S. Trustee’s website.
4. Debtors are required to complete a Financial Management course after filing a petition for bankruptcy. If you filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 7, your course certificate will be due 60 days from the date of the first scheduled 341 meeting. If you filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 13, your course will be due before the last plan payment is due. Approved Financial Management courses can be found on the court’s website.

FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ANY OF THE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS MAY RESULT IN DISMISSAL OR THE CLOSING OF YOUR CASE WITHOUT A DISCHARGE.
