Probably not. They are likely all post petition (meaning after your filing date - they don't have to be before the discharge date) items anyway.

Can the bankruptcy court take the child tax credit or earned income from your taxes?

This would depend on what type of chapter you are filing and at what point it is discharged. If you have already been discharged from the debt then the answer is no. If not, you should have had to provide copies of previous tax returns and this issue would be brought up during the hearing.


Will IRS still take your income taxes after filing chapter 13 bankruptcy?

If you still owe federal income taxes, they will. But if they don't take it, the chapter 13 trustee gets the tax refund. You should have listed any income taxes that were dischargeable (due more that 3 years prior to the filing date).

Why file single on your federal taxes when you are married and does it effect your spouse if one of you dies?

If you are married, you cannot (and should not) file single. Your choices are Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately. The only time I usually see a Married Filing Separate return is either if the spouses, as a rule, just keep all of their finances separate, or if one of them owes taxes. Remember if you owe taxes the IRS will keep your refunds to apply to that balance due, so if only one of you owes taxes you can file Married Filing Separately and the one of you that does not owe taxes can still get their refunds. Also if you are going to owe on a tax return and file that return as Married Filing Separate, and then later die, your widow will not be responsible for the taxes.


What if your wife filed taxes married filing separately do you have any rights to see her return?

Not if she does not want you to see it. It is her own income tax return.

Bankruptcy and taxes?

Can the IRS come after you when the taxes were discharged in a Chapter 7 two years later?

The question is NOT whether taxes are dischargeable in a bankruptcy. The question that has been asked is whether the IRS can still pursue you for taxes that were discharged in a bankruptcy (which would obviously confirm that some taxes are dischargeable in specific circumstances).If your taxes were discharged in a bankruptcy, the IRS cannot come after you for those taxes after the bankruptcy has been discharged. If they are doing so, they probably did not enter them as discharged correctly on their computer system.To correct this, you should call IRS collections and explain to them that the taxes should have been discharged in your bankruptcy. Ask them to send a referral to the IRS Insolvency Unit, and the Insolvency Unit will be able to pull the bankruptcy records and confirm what should have been discharged.Note that any liens that were filed before the bankruptcy will survive the discharge process. So, although the IRS debt has been discharged a lien may continue to exist. This lien only attaches to equity that was exempted in the bankruptcy process (so if you had $20,000 of equity in your home that you exempted under bankruptcy homestead exemption, the lien continues to attach to that equity). It does NOT attach to any equity that builds in your assets after the filing of your bankruptcy petition.


Can a trustee take your federal tax refund in Missouri if your bankruptcy was discharged before you filed your taxes?

The trustee may be able to take a portion depending upon the amount of the refund and the time frame between the filing or discharge of the BK and the date of the tax return. If a percentage can be ceased it will be pro-rated according to the number of months between the BK discharge and filing of taxes. In a chapter 13, the refund is not ceased but if it is of a considerable amount it may affect the payment amount assigned to the BK. But the money was generated BEFORE you filed for bankruptcy, so it's technically an asset that you already had and as such is to be factored in to the distribution to the creditors.


If you filed Chapter 7 in April of the current year do you have to claim anything on your income taxes this year?

Absolutely. depending on the filing and your income, deductions etc. It can become complicated. The safest route is to have your return(s) done by a professional tax preparer.
