When you generate your Chapter 13 plan, certain sections are automatically populated with data pulled directly from your case. This article explains exactly how each part of your plan is filled in, so you know how your case information needs to be entered for it to appear in the correct section of your plan.
(These instructions are specific to the Delaware Plan. If you are looking for a different district, you can search the Help Center for the article related to your plan.)
