Re: means test

I think you should consult with a bankruptcy attorney. The means test helps your attorney determine if you should file chapter 7 or not. It looks at your last 6 months of income, and there are no actual attempts. Your bankruptcy attorney shouldn't be filing a chapter 7 in a situation where you do not seem to qualify to begin with.

Re: means test

You can "take" the test as often as you want to, but if you did not pass the first time I would be curious what has changed to make you think you will pass this time? Have you considered filing for Chapter 13 protection?

Please feel free to give us a call.
