What is the loan modification with your mortgage while in Chapter 13 bankruptcty?
After filing Chapter 13 bankruptcy (mortgage included -fixed rate) my husband became unemployed, so we are now 6 months behind on our mortgage and our attorneys are submitting for a loan modification, what is the process? Is a loan modification always granted?
My husband is now currently working and has been for 3 months now, it has just taken us this long to finally get in touch with our attorneys and also the mortgage lenders attorneys.

The most common "modification" is for the bank to allow you to miss 6 payments with no penalty. That money is added on to the balance of the loan..
no not always. If the lender and the trustee believe that you cannot honor the payment plan then they will take the home out of the bankruptcy filing by a motion from the lenders attorney and foreclose on your home. The worst thing is that he lost his job so how can you even pay the trustee the required payments unless you were on a short schedule and modify it to the full 5 years
