Once someone makes the decision to file for bankruptcy, the next question is – “What chapter should I file?” There are four different chapters that an individual can file – Chapters 7, 11, 12, and 13. Chapter 12 is for farmers and fishermen (and no, occasional fishing trips or having a garden in your backyard does not qualify you). Chapter 11, while most often filed by businesses, can also be filed by those who make too much money for a Chapter 7 and have too much debt for a Chapter 13. If you are an individual, it is most likely that you will end up filing a Chapter 7 or Chapter 13.
