Voluntary Petition for Individuals Filing for Bankruptcy 12/22

The bankruptcy forms use you and Debtor 1 to refer to a debtor filing alone. A married couple may file a bankruptcy case together—called a joint case—and
in joint cases, these forms use you to ask for information from both debtors. For example, if a form asks, “Do you own a car,” the answer would be yes if
either debtor owns a car. When information is needed about the spouses separately, the form uses Debtor 1 and Debtor 2 to distinguish between them. In
joint cases, one of the spouses must report information as Debtor 1 and the other as Debtor 2. The same person must be Debtor 1 in all of the forms.
Be as complete and accurate as possible. If two married people are filing together, both are equally responsible for supplying correct information. If more
space is needed, attach a separate sheet to this form. On the top of any additional pages, write your name and case number (if known). Answer every
question.
