You pay court costs as well as the expenses of the two mandatory classes unless you apply for and qualify for a fee waiver. Most people that qualify for a fee waiver do not really need bankruptcy and are deluding themselves about what bankruptcy will do to help them.

You may qualify for the waiver of the filing fee. Google this issue.

The court cost is required unless it is waived in your case. Court costs can be waived if your income is less than 150% of the Department of Health and Human Services poverty guideline. This currently states at roughly $18,000 for a household of one and goes up about $6,000 for each additional person.
