It depends on your case; ask your attorney. For non-asset Chapter 7 cases, I understand it usually takes 6 months. For Chapter 13, you have to complete the plan (up to 5 years) before you can get a discharge.

it all depends... what type of bankruptcy and whether you've been to court already, and what youre debtors are thinking... file to hearing 3 months, and then a waiting period, so to get the papers after that, atleast another 6/8 wks.
