It depends on whether or not you qualify for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13. For Chapter 13, you will slowly have to pay your creditors back over time.

What happens to payments made to creditors during a Chapter 13 payment plan if you file for dismissal?
What do you think happens? The creditors have the money.

I hope the dismissal was worth it.
