Bring a photo identification and your social security card or other proof of your social security number to your hearing. Your identification and social security number must be confirmed on the record before your case may proceed. Your failure to bring these items to the hearing may seriously impair your rights to continue your case.
Make sure that you have provided your attorney with copies of your federal and state tax returns for the two prior years before your hearing so that your attorney may provide copies to the Trustee. You should also provide your attorney with your pay advices/pay stubs for the last 60 days. In addition, you must make sure that you have made at least one or more plan payments (depending on whether you are making your payments weekly, bi-weekly, semi-monthly or monthly) before your hearing is scheduled.
