    Median Income has been updated, but no data yet.

    Median income changes will take effect on March 15, according to the USDOJ website. Lets keep our fingers crossed, I dont want to be in a 5 year plan, but if so, so be it.



    Soon, it will post, but for right now, it just throws an error.

    Thanks for posting this. This is important information for people who are getting close to filing and who are teetering on their state's median income.

      I'm kind of worried that with the sinking economy, these numbers may be lower when they update, not higher.

      Plan Modified July 8, 2009 from $1100/month to $400/month due to change in income, finally discharged in July of 2013!

        The DOJ tends to change the median income and other required filing tables about every six months to a year. There's been no consistent pattern I've seen over the past three years - sometimes the amounts are up, sometimes they are down. They don't tend to vary much - a few hundred dollars more or less for income. Doubtful the changes will affect 99% of filers very much if at all.
        I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice nor a statement of the law - only a lawyer can provide those.

          Guys,
          Can you believe it, my income is about $69 above the median Income.
          I guess I have to find a way to take unpaid day off or something, but wouldn't that be considered suspicious?

            I went from borderline 36 month, to indefinite, the median changed from 59k to 62k.

              Are you certain that you are calculating it correctly?

                The company I work for keeps offering us off by permission. I'm thinking about taking some here and there to decrease income.

                  Go for it, if you can calculate that it might draw you under, then your good.
