A Chapter 13 bankruptcy is sometimes called a repayment or wage earners plan and can also STOP a foreclosure sale.  A Chapter 13 case does not require that you pay back all of your creditors in full.  It is for individuals who may have property they are trying to protect or who may have money coming in, but just can’t pay all of their bills.  A Chapter 13 bankruptcy can help you stop a foreclosure sale and catch up on mortgage arrearages, catch up on a car payment, lower a car loan interest rate, lower your monthly payments to creditors and even pay off tax debt.
