Am I liable for taxable income in a short sale vs foreclosure?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Kenneth A. Parker, PC
The discharge would protect you from the income tax liability if there is one. However, the bank may still issue you a 1099. If you receive a 1099, make sure you file the proper tax forms which will negate the 1099.

You do not need an attorney to file an adversary proceeding. If you have a secured position you may not need to file a complaint to determine nondischargeability. Consult with an attorney as to the facts in your case.

Is now a good time to file chapter 7?

Answered by attorney Sanaz Sarah Bereliani (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Bereliani Law Firm, PC
If you are current on your mortgage and you stop making payments now, typicall you'll need to be 6 months behind before they start any foreclosure activity. You can even request them to review you for a loan modification after you're 2-3 months behind. You also have the option of doing a shortsale instead of waiting for the house to be foreclosed on. There are many ways that you can get rid of your home while in bankruptcy and still have time in it. Every bank is different but I'd average that you have approximately 6 months to a year in the home rent free before they sell it, sometimes longer.
