Can you file bankruptcy when you debt is federal and state income taxes?

You can file bankruptcy at any time you like, but I will tell you that bankruptcy court does not have the authority to drop the taxes. The IRS or State may allow a payment plan instead of allowing them to begin confiscating property. You will still have to pay the taxes due and it may be to your benefit to work out a payment plan directly with tax department and not have to pay the legal and court fees involved with the bankruptcy.

Do you have to file a 1099c for credit card debt that was discharged in chapter 7 bankruptcy?

The debtor does not "file" a 1099C. The debtor may receive a 1099C from the creditor which also sends it to the IRS. The discharge of the debt in bankruptcy nullifies the 1099C. There is a form or a part of the 1040 set for disclosing this information to the IRS.


Can you file bankruptcy on a government farm loan?

You don't file bankruptcy "on" any loan. You file bankruptcy , listing all of your debts. Debts that are not dischargeable include child support arrears, student loans, federal income taxes filed or changed by the IRS within the three years prior to filing and certain judgments for damages due to fraud. State income taxes also cannot be discharged.If you obtain credit knowing you are bankrupt or intending to file bankruptcy, the creditor can object to the discharge of that loan.


Am preparing to file chapter 7 but cannot find out what to do with IRS debt know it cannot be discharged but should still list it and then try to make arrangements to pay IRS after bankruptcy?

Talk with your bankruptcy attorney. Also, make an appointment with a councelor at your local IRS Field Office. Take all information you have received to date from IRS. It is much better to talk to a local agent face-to-face than try to deal with IRS over the phone. Yes, list it. Even if it cannot be discharged, you still want it listed so that the IRS is given notice that you have entered bankruptcy. I would NOT recommend telling the IRS you are going into bankruptcy. If they know you are about to go into bankruptcy, they will file a tax lien (and if you don't already have one, then you don't want one). The court will notify them once you have filed your petition as long as you list them as a creditor.


Can you file tax debt on a chapter 7 bankruptcy State and federal?

No on state taxes, yes on federal income taxes if the filing date or the date on which the IRS determined the tax due is more than 3 years prior to filing.
