You pay tax when you close your short position.
If your brokerage pays interest on your balances, the interest would be taxable.

Much of whether there is tax liability of a short sale depends on whether the home was a primary residence or not. In most circumstances you will not pay taxes on a short sale if it was your primary residence. This is because of a law that went into effect called the Mortgage Debt Relief Act. If the property was an investment and not a primary residence you may have to pay taxes.
The plural would be "balances of sale".
Sale tax is definitely good for the state but there are some does not have sale tax and still survive.
Yes.
Bankruptcy is simply having debt beyond what you can pay. A short sale would have nothing to do with it. When you sell short, you leave the deal with nothing. No profit, no cash from the sale. Also, a lender would not even approve the short sale unless they are satisfied that you are 'upside down' each month and have no savings or other assets with which to pay the mortgage.

Many realtors will sell a house as a short sale. However a short sale has to be approved by the bank first.
