The total time for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy is approximately four months. However, the debtor receives the benefit of an automatic stay immediately after the petition is filed. The automatic stay means that creditors are generally not allowed to collect any debts from the debtor. The phone calls from creditors can end immediately.
