Revised Dollar Amounts for Certain Forms and Instructions, Effective April 1, 2025
Automatic adjustments will be made on April 1, 2025, to dollar amounts stated in various provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, one provision in Title 28, seven Official Bankruptcy Forms which contain adjusted dollar amounts, the Instructions for Individual and Non-Individual Debtors, two Director’s Forms which include dollar amounts, and one set of instructions for a Director’s Form which includes a dollar amount. The adjustments will apply to cases filed on or after April 1, 2025.
Title 11, Section 104 of the Code provides that the Judicial Conference make the adjustments, which are calculated at three-year intervals on the basis of the change in the Consumer Price Index for the most recent three-year period ending immediately before the year in which the adjustment is made and rounded to the nearest $25. The Conference has delegated that authority to the Administrative Office.
The revised dollar amounts were published in the Federal Register on February 4, 2025, Vol. 90, No. 22 at page 8941-8942.
