When you file bankruptcy your creditors will receive a notice of filing. This goes out to all of the creditors listed in your bankruptcy case. On this notice of filing there are certain deadlines listed that your creditors, the trustee, and you will need to abide by. The following are the deadlines listed on the notice of filing:
Your meeting of creditors date and time is listed on the notice. This states the date, time, your trustee, and location of the meeting. As of December 2021 the meetings are still being held virtually. Typically this is held about 4 to 6 weeks after your case is filed.
If your creditors need to file a proof of claim in your case, the specific deadlines are listed. For a voluntary case it is 70 days after the case is filed. Except government units get 180 days after filing.
If your creditor wants to object to your discharge or challenge dischargeability of the debt, they have 60 days from your meeting of creditors.
If a creditor or the trustee wants to object to your exemptions they must do so within 30 days after the conclusion of the meeting of creditors.
The date your certificate of completion for the financial management course is due. This is due before you receive your discharge.
Finally, if you are in a chapter 13 your confirmation hearing date, time, and location is listed on the notice. Most chapter 13 clients will not attend this hearing, but it will instead go by default.
