To qualify for Chapter 7 in Hawaii, your household income from all sources should be below the threshold (determined by Hawaii’s median household income) for the number of people living in your household.
If your household income is above the threshold, you may still qualify for Chapter 7 if you pass the “Means-Test” (a complicated calculation of your household expenses). Getting the qualification right before filing Chapter 7 is essential, therefore, you should contact our office to schedule a free attorney consultation to find out whether you qualify.
