No, but if the bank writes off any portion of the loan as a cancelled debt and reports it you on Form 1099-C, then you must include that on your tax return as income. Cancelled debt is taxed as income under the Internal Revenue Code.

NAKEI, I dont KNOW the answer but I dont see why they would. How would repoing your car give you any income for the IRS to tax?? Is a collector/repo person threatening you?No, the IRS will not take your taxes, on a repossessed vehicle or other property. However, the lender does have various legal options to get money owed them by an individual. This includes the ability to file a claim with the courts to garnish your wages and even your tax refunds.You should check the laws in your state regarding "garnishment" because not all state allow for wage garnishment and that may also affect where your tax refunds can be garnished.

Can the IRS arrest you?

If you have received a phone call, claiming to be from the Internal Revenue Service, telling you that you owe taxes, threatening you with arrest if you do not pay immediately- it is a scam. First, the IRS does not call you- you get a registered letter. Second, you are not arrested for owing money- you CAN be hauled into court for evading taxes. If you owe the IRS money, and they want it, they can take it without your permission. They have the power to take your paycheck, your bank account, your car and your house.
