Can I use Bankruptcy to catch up on my house or car payments? 

Yes, if you are behind on secured loan payments, you can use bankruptcy to catch up on delinquent payments on houses, cars, jewelry or personal property loans. These catch up payments can be decided into as many as 60 monthly installments. 

We have our house paid off but our other debts are out of control. We are being sued and my wages are being garnished. Can I file for Bankruptcy and still keep my house?
