Chapter 7 - Chapter 7 of the United States Bankruptcy Code is known as the liquidation form of bankruptcy. Assets that are not protected by the law are collected by a trustee and sold to pay off your debts to creditors. In order to qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the debtor must take the means test to prove that he or she makes less than the state median income.

Chapter 13 - Under federal law, Chapter 13 is the type of bankruptcy that allows a debtor to restructure his or her debts into a repayment plan. The plan typically lasts three or five years. Under Chapter 13, debtors are able to keep their property and simply pay off their debt over time. If you do not qualify for Chapter 7 based on the means test, you can likely file under Chapter 13.
