Yes. A 1099C is confirmation from the creditor or lender that the debt has been cancelled and collection efforts have ended. The bad news is, the amount shown on the 1099C is considered taxable income and must be claimed on your federal tax return.

I filed a 1099c for debt and the account was sold to a new creditor do I have to pay?
You mean you received a 1099C right...you had (cancellation of debt)income because you had a bankruptcy or failed to pay what the persdon issuing it to you had loaned you. In any case, no matter what the circumstances, the facts haven't changed....just the name of who you owe that debt to. That doesn't change anything about your accounting, taxability or reporting obligation.
