§1192 Discharge

Summary

If a debtor’s plan is confirmed under section 1191(b), the court must discharge the debtor once the debtor finishes all payments due within the first 3 years of the plan (or a longer time up to 5 years the court sets), unless the court approves a written waiver of discharge the debtor signed after the order for relief. The discharge covers debts listed in section 1141(d)(1)(A) and other allowed plan debts under section 503, but not debts whose last payment is due after that 3–5 year period or debts listed in section 523(a).
