Can I keep state and federal tax refunds under chapter 13?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Mark E. Bredow (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Bredow Law PLC
Every case is different, whether or not you have to turn over your tax refund will depend upon how much of your debt your plan will pay, and will depend upon other factors. The terms of your plan will determine your responsibilities. But generally speaking, the Chapter 13 Trustee will want you to turn over your federal tax return and does not usually seek your state or local refunds. You should consider changing the amount of the tax exemptions that you claim and reduce the amount of your refund that you expect to receive.

Can I sell my home after my bankruptcy has been discharged and pay the bank only what I owe them?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Dorothy G. Bunce (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at A Fresh Start
Yes, provided there are no other debts owed against the property. If there is a 2nd mortgage, filing bankruptcy did not remove the lien from this obligation. Bankruptcy does not remove liens for taxes, HOA dues or other forms of liens created by state laws. If you had a judgment lien, it can be removed through your bankruptcy & you could avoid having to pay this lien to sell the property if and only if you took steps to avoid the lien during your bankruptcy.

Suing people who are broke isn't much fun, because if you win you don't get any money. Whether or not he goes into bankruptcy.
