It is highly recommended that a person file all of the Bankruptcy documents that are required to be submitted at the same time, one time. But that recommendation is not a legal requirement.
A person may file the Bankruptcy Petition alone and then, within 14 days, file the remainder of the Bankruptcy documents.
The process of filing a ‘skeleton petition’ (i.e. just the Bankruptcy petition alone) is more fully described within the instructions that are provided with Standard Legal’s Bankruptcy legal forms software.
