The AI checks your answers before you download

14 checks built for this form, so a wrong date or a missing answer is caught before anyone else sees it.

Conditional Requirement for Real Property Details

This check ensures that if a debtor indicates they own real estate by selecting 'Yes' in Part 1, they must provide the complete details for at least one property (entry 1.1, 1.2, or 1.3). This is crucial for accurately cataloging all assets for the bankruptcy estate. Failure to provide these details will result in an incomplete filing, requiring the user to go back and fill in the required property information before submission.

Ownership Portion Value Consistency

This validation verifies that for any asset, the 'Current value of the portion you own' is not greater than the 'Current value of the entire property'. This is a critical logical check to prevent data entry errors and ensure the debtor's equity is stated correctly. An error would indicate a misunderstanding of the question or a typo, and the form would prompt the user to correct the values before proceeding.

Requires Description for 'Other' Selections

This validation ensures that whenever a user selects an 'Other' checkbox in any section (such as property type in Part 1), the corresponding text field for describing that 'Other' item is not left empty. This is important for clarity and to ensure all assets are properly identified and categorized. If the description is missing, the form submission will be blocked until the user provides the necessary details.

Vehicle Model Year Validation

This check ensures that the 'Year' entered for any vehicle in Part 2 is a valid four-digit number within a logical historical range (e.g., 1900 to the current year + 1). This prevents typos like entering a 2-digit year or an impossible value, which could affect the vehicle's valuation. If an invalid year is entered, the user will receive an error message and must correct the field.

Part-Level Total Calculation Accuracy

This check verifies that the summary total at the end of each part (e.g., Line 2 for Part 1, Line 5 for Part 2) is the accurate sum of all 'Current value of the portion you own' fields within that part. This ensures that summary values are correctly calculated before being carried over to the final summary in Part 8. A mismatch would indicate a calculation error, and the user would be prompted to correct the individual values or the total.

Conditional Asset Detail Requirement

This check ensures that if a debtor answers 'Yes' to owning a category of assets (e.g., 'Yes' for Electronics in Part 3, Line 7), they must provide both a description and a corresponding value for that category. Leaving these fields blank after affirming ownership would result in an incomplete declaration. The system should prevent submission until the required details are filled in for every 'Yes' answer.

Common Mistakes in Completing Official Form 106A/B

The ones the AI is built to catch.

Incorrectly Valuing Real Estate and Vehicles
Filers often confuse an asset's fair market value with its equity. They incorrectly subtract the loan balance from the value, despite instructions to 'not deduct secured claims.' This happens because they think in terms of what they would 'get' if they sold it. This mistake leads to inaccurate schedules, which must be amended, and can draw scrutiny from the trustee, potentially jeopardizing the case. To avoid this, list the full current market value and list the corresponding loan on Schedule D, as instructed.
Underestimating the Value of Personal and Household Items
In Part 3, many people assign a 'garage sale value' to their belongings, resulting in an unrealistically low total. This is often done out of a desire to protect assets, but it can be viewed as concealment. A trustee may question a very low valuation, leading to inspections or loss of credibility. Filers should use a 'fair market value' or 'replacement value' standard, which is what a willing buyer would pay a willing seller, and be prepared to justify their figures.
Omitting 'Forgotten' Financial Assets
It is very common to forget to list certain financial assets in Part 4, such as security deposits with landlords or utility companies, expected tax refunds, or old bank accounts with small balances. People overlook these because they are not readily accessible cash. Omitting any asset, regardless of value, is a failure to provide a complete and truthful declaration, which can lead to the denial of the bankruptcy discharge. Reviewing rental agreements, utility bills, and past tax returns can help identify and list these forgotten assets.
Failing to Disclose All Retirement Accounts
Debtors often believe that because retirement accounts like 401(k)s, 403(b)s, and IRAs are typically protected (exempt), they do not need to be listed in Part 4, line 21. However, the law requires the disclosure of all assets, regardless of their exempt status. Failing to list a retirement account can be considered a false oath, a serious offense that could lead to the dismissal of the case or denial of discharge. Always list all accounts and then claim the appropriate exemption on Schedule C.
Using Vague or Incomplete Asset Descriptions
Filers may use generic descriptions like 'furniture' in Part 3 or 'tools' in Part 5 instead of providing specific details. This lack of specificity forces the trustee to ask for more information, causing delays and raising suspicion about what might be hidden. For example, 'Household goods' is insufficient; a better description would be 'Living room set, dining table, 2 beds, kitchenware.' For vehicles, include the make, model, year, and approximate mileage as requested to provide a clear picture of the asset.
Confusing Ownership Status for Joint Filers
When filling out details for property or vehicles, joint filers often get confused about whether to check 'Debtor 1 only,' 'Debtor 2 only,' or 'Debtor 1 and Debtor 2 only.' This mistake can occur when an asset is titled in one spouse's name but is considered marital or community property. Incorrectly designating ownership can impact which exemptions can be applied and how the asset is treated by the court. It is crucial to check deeds and titles to accurately report who legally owns each asset.
Forgetting to List Claims Against Third Parties
In Part 4, lines 33 and 34, debtors must list any potential or pending claims they have against others, such as a personal injury claim from an accident, a potential employment lawsuit, or an inheritance from someone who has recently died. Many people don't consider these 'property' and fail to list them, especially if a lawsuit hasn't been filed yet. Failure to disclose such a claim can result in forfeiting the proceeds to the bankruptcy estate, even after the case is closed.
Mathematical and Transcription Errors in the Summary
Part 8 requires filers to add up the totals from the seven preceding parts of the schedule. Simple arithmetic mistakes or errors in transcribing the totals from previous pages are extremely common. These errors create inconsistencies in the bankruptcy petition, requiring amendments and potentially delaying the case. Using a calculator and double-checking each entry is critical to ensure the final totals are accurate and match the detailed listings.
Inconsistent Case Information Across Pages
The form requires the Debtor's name and case number to be filled in at the top or bottom of every single page. People often fill this out on the first page but forget the subsequent ones, or they make a typo on one page. This can cause documents to be misfiled by the court clerk, especially in paper-filed cases or when submitting amendments. This creates administrative problems and can lead to important notices or deadlines being missed.
Struggling with Non-Fillable PDF Forms
Many official forms are only available as flat, non-fillable PDFs, forcing users to print them and fill them out by hand. This leads to illegible handwriting, calculation errors, and difficulty making corrections, which can result in the court rejecting the filing. The process is tedious and prone to the very mistakes this list describes. To avoid this, AI-powered tools like Instafill.ai can convert any non-fillable PDF into an interactive, fillable form, making the process cleaner, more accurate, and less stressful.

What is the purpose of Form 106A/B, Schedule A/B?
This form is a required part of a bankruptcy filing used to list all of your property and assets. You must disclose everything you own or have a legal interest in, including real estate, vehicles, financial accounts, and personal belongings.
Who needs to fill out Schedule A/B?
Any individual or married couple filing for bankruptcy must complete and submit this form. It provides the court and the bankruptcy trustee with a complete picture of your assets.
The form says 'Do not deduct secured claims.' What does this mean for my mortgage or car loan?
You must list the full current market value of the asset, not just the equity you have in it. For example, if your home is worth $300,000 and you owe $250,000, you list $300,000 as the value on this form; the mortgage is listed separately on Schedule D.
How do I determine the 'current value' for my property?
Use the fair market value, which is what a willing buyer would pay for the item today. You can use recent appraisals, online valuation tools (like Kelley Blue Book for cars), or prices for similar items for sale to estimate the value.
What is the difference between 'Current value of the entire property' and 'Current value of the portion you own'?
List the total market value of the asset first, then list the value of your specific ownership share. For example, if you and a sibling co-own a property worth $100,000 on a 50/50 basis, you would list $100,000 as the entire value and $50,000 as the value of your portion.
Do I really have to list every single piece of clothing and furniture I own?
You must be thorough, but you can group low-value items into general categories like 'Household goods and furnishings' or 'Clothing'. Provide a reasonable, good-faith estimate of the total resale value for each category.
I lease my car, I don't own it. Do I still need to list it in Part 2?
Yes, the form requires you to list any vehicles you lease or have an interest in. You should also report the details of the lease on Schedule G: Executory Contracts and Unexpired Leases.
What documents should I gather before filling out this form?
To ensure accuracy, collect documents like property deeds, vehicle titles, recent bank and investment account statements, retirement plan statements, and insurance policies. These will help you provide correct values and details for your assets.
What happens if I forget to list an asset on Schedule A/B?
You must immediately file an amended Schedule A/B with the court to correct the omission. Intentionally hiding assets is a serious crime, and even accidental omissions can jeopardize your bankruptcy case.
If my spouse and I are filing for bankruptcy together, do we fill out separate forms?
No, you will complete a single Schedule A/B for a joint filing. The form has checkboxes to indicate whether an asset is owned by Debtor 1, Debtor 2, both, or with another person.
I am the beneficiary of my grandmother's life insurance policy. Do I need to list that?
Yes, you must disclose any interests in insurance policies, as well as any property you expect to receive from someone who has died. This information should be listed in Part 4 of the form.
