Instructions for Proof of Claim is a set of documents and procedures that creditors must follow in order to receive payment from a debtor in bankruptcy proceedings. These instructions are typically issued by the bankruptcy court or the debtor's representative, such as a trustee. The instructions will usually include the creditor's name, the claim amount, a deadline for filing the claim, and information on how to properly complete the proof of claim. There are two main types of Instructions for Proof of Claim: those related to chapter 7 bankruptcies and those related to chapter 13 bankruptcies. For chapter 7 bankruptcies, the instructions will typically include the claim amount, the deadline for filing, the debtor's address, and the trustee's address. For chapter 13 bankruptcies, the instructions will typically include the claim amount, the deadline for filing, the debtor's address, and the plan details.
