Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Illinois

Quitclaimed Property

On property that was quitclaimed with the mortage in arrears, can I file the mortage arrears on a chapter 13 to keep the property from going into foreclosure because I cannot catch up the payments and I cannot qualify right now to have the mortgage in my name?
