It depends on the Trustee. As long as 36 months have gone by, Nancy Curry is fine with an early payoff. However, Elizabeth Rojas' view is that the plan is not completed. So you will need to bring a motion to decrease plan length. Make sure you do it before she brings one of her generic motions to increase percentage. Don't know what Cathy Dockery's position on this issue is.

Does anybody know what the Chapter 13 Trustee will do if a debtor in

(e.g., a 60 month plan and wants to pay it off in 36 months because
he can get a loan from his parents)?
Will this raise any "redflags/issues with the Chapter 13 Trustee?
Will the Trustee force the debtor to pay a higher percentage to the
unsecured creditors than orignally provided for in the plan?
thank you!!

With Nancy Curry, it's no problem.Just send in a check for the balance.
Otherwise, it's possible but not automatic. You will need a hearing with
notice to all. I always call ahead and check. CF

My understanding is that the Chapter 13 Trustee will not allow an
early payoff of less than 100% during the first 36 months. After 36
months, you can pay off the remaining balance based on the original
percentage in the confirmed plan. Thus, no increase in percentage
but only if you do the payoff after 36 months.

Ty ~
My experience is that the Trustee will not have an issue about this if the debtor is at or past month 36 of the plan. You could do a motion to modify the plan to shorten the length combined with a companion motion to allow the debtor to borrow the money from his parents (such a motion would not be required, however if the "loan" from the parents was a gift.) Knowing which Trustee it is would be helpful.
