Trustee Fees

I’m making a proposal for approximately $20,000 to my creditors, which represents about 25% of my debt. The trustee fee is going to be 8,500 on top of this amount. This seems high to me considering there’s nothing complicated about my situation. Is this an average fee?
Thanks.

There are no stated “fees” per se – althought most trustees rquire you to pay approximately $1400 to cover the basic costs of administering your file.

Most people pay monthly becuase the actual amount you are required to pay can vary dpending on your income.

In your case, with no income (unless you start working during the bankruptcy) I suspect your trustee will allow you to repay the full amount.
