Bankruptcy 730-Day Exemption Domicile Timeline Calculator

Calculate the federal move-rule date markers and residence chronology before attorney review of venue and exemption domicile

Output scope

Reviewed output branch: the federal arithmetic and source versions named in the result. State, district, trustee, tolling, and legal-effect conclusions remain held unless the result identifies a matched source.

Direct answer

What this workpaper does

This calculator places a projected petition date against the 180-day, 730-day, prior-180-day fallback, and 1,215-day arithmetic markers. It also totals entered residence days by state, but it does not select the governing exemptions, venue, or homestead cap.

Use it when: The debtor has lived in more than one state before the projected petition date.
