If a chapter 13 bankruptcy was voluntarily dismissed not discharged can it be removed from your credit file?
You can't get it removed. It is a public record. If you file a bankruptcy and get it voluntarily dismissed the next day, it will still be on your credit report. Also, by the way, not paying into a Chapter 13 plan is not a voluntary dismissal. The Trustee moved to have the bankruptcy dismissed. - The easier approach would have been to actually voluntarily have it dismissed. Regarding Nate's posting, I agree that non-payment of a Chapter 13 normally results in the trustee moving to dismiss your case, which is an involuntary dismissal. I have no idea if whether a Chapter 13 is voluntarily or involuntarily dismissed affects your credit rating differently (probably not, credit reporting agencies barely seem to recognize the difference between Chapter 7's and Chapter 13's, much less the way in which any particular case is dismissed), but there can be a big difference to the debtor whether a case is involuntarily or voluntarily dismissed if a creditor has moved to get property back. Once a creditor asks the court for permission to get back some property (such as a car or home), which they do by filing a Motion for Relief from Stay, then if you voluntarily dismiss your case you are barred from re-filing a new Chapter 13 for 180 days. This 180 days may be enough time for the creditor to foreclose/repo and sell the property. Once a creditor moves to repo/foreclose in a Chapter 13, many people prefer to be involuntarily dismissed so they can re-file a new Chapter 13 immediately and get protection again before the creditor sells the collateral. Please keep in mind this is not legal advice but simply a statement of what many people do in that situation from my perspective. So, while Nate (in the posting above) said it is easier to voluntarily dismiss, that does not mean it is always better to voluntarily dismiss, depending on the circumstances.

Is there a 180 day bar to filing a ch 7 after a ch 13 case was dismissed?
Yes, there is a 180-day bar to filing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy after a Chapter 13 case is dismissed if the dismissal was due to the debtor's failure to comply with court orders or if the debtor voluntarily dismissed the case after a creditor filed a motion for relief from stay. This rule is intended to prevent abuse of the bankruptcy system. If the dismissal was not due to these reasons, the debtor may be able to file for Chapter 7 without the waiting period. Always consult with a bankruptcy attorney for specific guidance related to individual circumstances.
