Rule #1: Prioritize Debts Whose Non-Payment Immediately Harms Your Family
Non-payment of certain debts have sudden and dire consequences for your family. Deal with these debts immediately—either pay these debts first or otherwise follow advice here on how to manage these debts.
Never pay smaller, low priority debts just because you cannot keep up with high priority debts—“If I can’t pay my mortgage, at least I will keep up with my credit cards.” This is a bad idea.
This is a form that is needed with a final divorce decree. It is only needed when there are minor children involved.
