That being said, in order to find your case, the person looking will have to search for it and then pay .10 per page up to $3.00 per document to see it. Therefore, although it is public information there still has to be some digging done.
Your bankruptcy case will have information about you listed in it. Among the things listed in the case there will be your creditors, your address, your name, business information if you have it, income, expenses, financial affair transactions, rental information if you have it, and more.
What your case will not list though is your full social security number, your birthdate, your full bank account number, or your minor children’s names. These pieces of information are deemed confidential and there are rules on what can be included in the case for them.
Your social security number and bank account information have to be listed in the case, but only the last four of each. Therefore, both of these items stay confidential in the filing. The court and your trustee will see your full social security number though, to verify your identity and the filing. Your birthdate and your minor children’s names are never listed in the case at all.
Therefore, even if someone where to look up your case and pay to see it, they will see information regarding your filing, but not confidential information.
