What is the name of your state? Tn I just finished my 2nd year of a chapter 13. When filing my unsecured creditors were to be paid 20%. At the meeting of creditors the trustee was doing his thing and said the amount I needed to paid weekly would go up about $40 from what my attorney had calculated.

Well anyway I still have about 50 weeks to go before I will have paid the base amount of my plan. However, all of my unsecured creditors have been paid their 20%. The trustee is currently applying my payments to regular mortgage payment. Mortgage arrears (will be paid of in 4 months at current rate) and my car payment (also paid off in 4 months at current rate).

What happens to the rest of the money after this 4 months. Will the trustee just keep applying more and more to mortgage or will excess monies start going to the unsecured creditors.

The Trustee will get his/her percentage plus fees on top of what you've paid your creditors. You MUST complete the minimum plan of 3 years. If there's any overpayment, it should be returned to you. I suggest you call or write the Trustee's office and ask for an accounting of all monies paid out and ask the Trustee what happens next.
