What income is exempt in filing bankruptcy?

In Georgia, only your social security benefits are not counted in calculating the means test for income eligibility. The VA income is calculated as part of your household income along with any other types of income you may have. Roughly. if you take your gross VA benefits plus any other non-social security gross income for the last 6 full months and double that amount, it will give you your income for means tests purposes. But eligibility actually depends on the size of your household and any regular income other members of your household may have.
