Instructions
Please answer these questions carefully. The information you give us will be used to compile the schedules
the Court requires to have your bankruptcy case approved. Your answers will determine what will be on
your bankruptcy petition. Any errors, omissions or misrepresentations may seriously affect the discharge of

with your attorney.
Where space permits, answer the questions on this questionnaire. However, do not let the size of the space
available determine the extent of your response. If additional space is necessary, use a separate sheet or the
