After the effective date of the Abuse Prevention Act of 2005, several
new bills proposed additional amendments to income restrictions. The
allowance of an additional 15% in monthly expenses for charitable
contributions made by church members is now in question. Also,
additional pending legislation would extend the review period for means
testing beyond the current 30 day look back period, to prevent anyone
earning above the state median income during the last 6 months from
filing bankruptcy under Chapter 7.
A bill proposing a mandatory 7 year terms in all partial Chapter 13
plans was defeated.
