What Is the Means Test?
The Chapter 7 means test is a financial assessment used in bankruptcy cases to evaluate whether an individual or household is eligible for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. It was enacted as part of the 2005 Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act.
How the Means Test Works
This test determines whether you have enough disposable income to pay back your debts under Chapter 13 bankruptcy by looking at your income, expenses, and financial status. You normally qualify for Chapter 7 if your income is less than the median income for your state and household size. Based on a more thorough analysis of your income, expenses, and debt responsibilities, you might still be eligible even if your income is higher than the median.
