December 13, 2007 Notice TO: ALL MEMBERS OF THE BAR AND OTHER PARTIES IN INTEREST Subject: Amendments to Official Bankruptcy Forms 22A, 22B, 22C At its November 2007, meeting, the Executive Committee on behalf of the Judicial Conference, approved proposed Form amendments to: Official Form 22A- Statement of Current Monthly Income and Means Test Calculation (Chapter 7); Official Form 22B- Statement of Current Monthly Income (Chapter 11); Official Form 22C- Statement of Current Monthly Income and Calculation of Commitment Period and Disposable Income (Chapter 13).

-

The amendments to these three Official Forms will be effective on January 1, 2008. Proposed amendments to the forms were originally published in August 2007. Because the "means test" forms are based on the national standards and local standards set out in the Internal Revenue Service's Collection Financial Standards, additional conforming changes became necessary and the earlier effective date was postponed until January 1, 2008. Attorneys who utilize petition software for bankruptcy forms should contact their vendors to ensure the amended forms are updated prior to January 1, 2008. Copies of the amended forms are available on the Court's website at www.utb.uscourts.gov and at the 350 South Main Street, Room 301, SLC, UT 84101. For committee notes relating to form changes, visit http://www.uscourts.gov/bkforms/index.html If you have any questions regarding the forms please contact Brenda Dowler 801-5246635 or via email at [email protected].
