Bankruptcy Basics: Part 2
Part 2 of Form 122A-1 determines whether, according to the form’s methodology, the section 707(b)(7) safe harbor from the means test applies. The income calculated in Part 1 of Form 122A-1 is compared to the applicable median family income for the debtor’s state and household size. As discussed above the debtor may disagree with that methodology to the extent that it includes the income of a non-debtor spouse.
