Yes, but only in individual Chapter 7 cases. To be eligible for a fee waiver, you must (a) have income less than 150 percent of the poverty guidelines last published by the United States Department of Health and Human Services applicable to a family of the size involved; and (b) be unable to pay the filing fee in installments. If you believe you are eligible for a fee waiver you must file the Application to Have the Chapter 7 Filing Fee Waived at the same time as the petition.
