Bankruptcy Threshold Adjustment Act of 2026 This bill restores changes that expired in 2024 applicable to debt limits for Subchapter V (small business reorganization) and Chapter 13 (the wage earner's plan) bankruptcies. Specifically, the bill increases the debt limit under Subchapter V from approximately $3.4 million to $7.5 million and increases the cumulative debt limit under Chapter 13 from approximately $2.1 million to $2.75 million. The bill also applies both secured and unsecured debt towards the Chapter 13 limit. (Currently, separate limits apply to secured and unsecured debt under Chapter 13 bankruptcy.)
