I believe it doesn't matter what state you filed, bankruptcy is a federal matter. It will stay 10 years on credit reports!
my brother filed then got married she has good credit but no job. they bought one a year after he filed but had to have a large down payment.
You need to discuss this with your attorney. Once you receive your tax refund, it's part of your personal assets that could be seized to pay creditors. If you file bankruptcy before you get your taxes then the government will keep your tax refund and put it towards your debt. The bankruptcy court has 1 year to go back and open your case even after your bankruptcy has been discharged. If you can prove that the money is needed/used for catching up rent or other nessacery bills they will not take it.
Yes. For 3 years. They do not take it all. You will get to keep your EIC and certain other credits that may be given that year. This is per my bankruptcy lawyer.

You should start by checking in the court of jurisdiction in the state where the decedent last lived to see if a will was filed.
Call the IRS or the state tax agency in question and ask.

If you are asking whether you will receive an income tax refund while you still owe taxes, the answer is no. The IRS will require payments and keep your refunds until the bill is paid in full.

Bankruptcy must be filed in the state in which you reside for the majority of the year.

The first two digits of the docket number, before the hyphen, tells you the year. If you don't have the docket number, you can go to a bankruptcy court or bankruptcy lawyer's office and look it up on the computer.
