Bankruptcy Administrator to resume individual chapter 7 and chapter 13 cases for audit

Tuesday, February 14, 2023

Effective March 13, 2023, the Bankruptcy Administrator will resume individual chapter 7 and chapter 13 cases for audit. These audits previously had been suspended in March 2020 due to public health concerns associated with the Covid-19 pandemic. Random debtor audits in individual chapter 7 and chapter 13 cases were established by the Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act of 2005 to determine the accuracy, veracity, and completeness of petitions, schedules, and other information required to be provided by the debtor under sections 521 and 1322 of title 11.
