If you are asking about Chapter 13 payments, there could be a number of reasons why you are still paying when the plan should be complete. Here are two: (1) Simple oversight, in which case you will get a refund when the trustee does her audit of the case; or (2) Your claims came in higher than anticipated and due to the terms of your plan you need to pay more than you anticipated.
