The cost of getting out of debt is going up.
The Judicial Conference of the United States has approved a$29.00 increase in the administrative fee charged to an individual when they file for bankruptcy. The fee, which is currently $46.00, will increase to $75.00 on June 1, 2014.
This will make the filing fee for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy $335.00, and the fee for a Chapter 13 bankruptcy $310.00.
