Can I Amend My Chapter 13 Filing

[Dj1995]

Ok, freaking out just a bit - we filed Chapter 13 this week, and I just realized we forgot to list 2 accounts - a PayPal account with $10 in it, and a College Fund for our child for about $100 - I just totally forgot about these in all the paperwork rush - neither account has had money go in or out for a very long time, so I just wasn't even thinking. I'm calling the attorney first thing in the morning, but does anyone know from experience how we can fix this? Can we just take the info in to the 341, or can/does it need to be fixed before then?

Did you file through an attorney? Those accounts are really insignificant. Speak with your attorney. If you filed pro se, then amend your petition.

You figured this out before your 341, so adding these two accounts to your filing should be fine.

Do check your agreement with your lawyer to see if making these changes will cost you anything beyond the typical low court costs (usually around $26) for filing an amended plan with the court. Some lawyers will charge for the time it takes them to modify your original filing, and some won't.
