Chapter 7 liquidates eligible debt in ~90 days for those who pass the means test. Chapter 13 sets up a 3–5 year repayment plan, allowing you to keep assets like your home or car. An attorney determines which fits your situation.
Bankruptcy can eliminate credit card debt, medical bills, personal loans, and some older tax debts. It cannot discharge student loans (in most cases), child support, alimony, or recent tax debts.
The moment you file, an automatic stay halts most collection actions — foreclosure, wage garnishment, creditor calls, and lawsuits. This immediate protection is one of bankruptcy's most powerful tools.
