Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Georgia Income Limits 2024

The Georgia income limits are extremely important and are state based, so the income limits are the same in Augusta and Atlanta.
Information in this article does not constitute legal advice, it is for informational purposes only, and may not constitute the most up-to-date information. Readers should contact their attorney for advice on any particular legal matter.

Georgia, like all other states, has income limits that vary. If you are in the state of Georgia and are curious to see if your household size is within Georgia’s income limit for chapter 7, please refer to the below table. (This data can update about twice per year.) You can take the Georgia means test calculator to estimate if you qualify as well. 

You can also refer to the government's website, but we found that it can be complex to locate the data. 

If you notice your household size is greater than what is included in the table, you can add $9,900 for the added members.
