C-11, which is almost always for business corporations, normally has any pre-filing debt delayed (and paid at a reduced amount if at all), but all current amounts....rent after the filing...MUST be paid timely.
Under the new Bankruptcy laws you must now wait 8 years before filing another Chapter & or Total Bankruptcy as it is better know. You may be eligible to file if eligible a Chapter 13 to structure repayment to those creditors.
The filing will delay the foreclosure or reposession for a bit. But, presuming there are secured loans to the items you mention, they will need to be satisfied (paid) in the course of the bankruptcy, or those actions would still occur.

It depends on how busy the attorney is, how complicated your case is, if the attorney has received all the needed documents, including the certificate showing you have taken the debt counseling class, and what chapter you are filing under. A simple C. 7, all papers and certificate in hand, legal fee and filing fee paid, should not take more than a week or two.
what is the rule for receiving tax deductible for medicare paid in for retirees filing jointly, under $13.000?
After the entry of the dismissal, the Chapter 13 trusee will send you a final accounting of how much was paid to each creditor.
It depends on what the chapter 13 plan provides. Most 13s are started to save a home from foreclosure, so the debtor remains the owner until the plan is completed. If the debtor misses post-filing mortgage payments, the mortgagee will file a motion for relief from stay to get the court's permission to proceed with the foreclosure. The plan can provide for the sale of the house, most often at auction, and the balance of the mortgage becomes unsecured debt to be paid according to the plan provisions for unsecured creditors. Or the plan can provide for the surrender of the collateral (home) to the mortgagee, with the same result for the mortgage balance.
I'm assuming that the question pertains to the filing fee in a bankruptcy case. Years ago this option was available in some states (Maryland). A petitioner was allowed to make three equal payments over a time period, which I believe was 120 days. By the end of the time period all monies had to have been paid or the filing would be halted and dismissed. A new filing could be rendered, but then the payment option would be no longer available. Also, I think that the petitioner would have to forfeit (surrender) the fees paid. I also think that it was only available for Chapter 7 filings, which is basically liquidation. Chapter 13 is often called homeowners bankruptcy, as it allows a homeowner to keep their property with certain limitations. Chapter 11 is a business bankruptcy, fairly common in the marketplace, actually. You'd be startled to find out how many companies have filed it to get some breathing room.
