Your rent will be included as a part of your expenses on the Ch 13 forms when you file. However, you are 99.9% likely to continue to make your rent payments yourself directly to your landlord.

The only payments that most trustees usually make for the filer are paying back mortgage or other asset arrears, paying back taxes owed, and paying the confirmed % to your non-secured creditors. There are always exceptions, so ask your lawyer (if you've retained one) or ask the 3-4 experienced bk lawyers you are going to interview during your time with them.

We pay our landlord as usual. You include the amount that you pay in your expenses.

You can pay it on your own.
