What Information Do I Need to Enroll?
During enrollment, you will be asked to confirm the following information. Have it ready before you begin — you will not be able to complete enrollment without it.
Required Information
Filer type Indicate whether you are an individual filer or a joint filer (married couple filing together).
Full legal name(s) Enter the full legal name of each filer exactly as it appears on your bankruptcy petition. This name will appear on your completion certificate and must match your court records.
Last 4 digits of Social Security Number Required for each filer. For joint filers, provide the last 4 digits for both spouses.

Bankruptcy case number Assigned by the court when your petition is filed. It appears on all court documents. Your attorney also has it.
Bankruptcy court district The name of the federal judicial district where your case is filed. This appears on your court paperwork. You can also find it at uscourts.gov/court-locator.
Email address Used to create your account and deliver your completion certificate. Use an email address you can reliably access — double-check it before completing enrollment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I enter my name incorrectly? Let us know right away. If your certificate has not been issued, we can correct the name on your enrollment. If the certificate has already been issued with an incorrect name, let us know — do not file an incorrect certificate with the court.
Where do I find my court district? It is printed on all documents you received from the court after filing. Your attorney also has this information. You can also find it using the federal court locator at uscourts.gov/court-locator.
What if I do not know my case number? You cannot enroll without your case number. Your attorney or the bankruptcy court clerk can provide it. If you filed pro se, the court provided your case number when your petition was accepted.
