You must list an inheritance (or even possibility of inheritance) within 180 days of filing BK. So if you are to receive an inheritance, even if your BK was already discharged, within 6 months of filing, you must inform the BK Trustee (who would have the right to take the inheritance to distribute among the creditors)
Any inheritance you receive based on a death within 180 days of filing bankruptcy can be used by the trustee to pay off your creditors. If the debts are high enough, a trustee can take all the inheritance to pay creditors.
Three years after bankruptcy you inherit, does that affect your inheritance
An inheritance based on the death of a person within 180 days of filing BK goes to the BK estate and is used to pay off creditors.
No property can be sold, transferred, refinanced, etc. while in bankruptcy without the permission of the bankruptcy court.
No, unless you both filed a joint BK petition.
The way this question is worded implies you want to manipulate the inheritance to avoid including it in your bankruptcy. If you become an heir to land or any property (cash, motor vehicle, etc.) prior to filing or while you are in bankruptcy, or within 180 days after discharge, you must disclose the inheritance to the trustee and the court, even if you have not actually received the property. There is no "waiting."
No exactly. If you inherit any money within 180 days after you filed the bankruptcy, it will become property the estate. The creditors cannot go fater it, but the trustee can force you to turn over the inherited assets. See section 545 of the bankruptcy code.

Because marriage is a legal condition. It affect inheritance, dowry and property deeds.
Maybe. It depends upon the type of bankruptcy that was filed (state or federal) and the time the bankruptcy petitioner actually was awarded the inheritance, not accepted it. A bankruptcy case is officially finished when it is closed, not discharged.
Yes you must inform whoever is looking after your bankruptcy that you have had an inheritance. You will be then advised what to do next, so don't spend the money as you could be breaking the law.
No. Property that you receive by a will IS an inheritance. Property received from a relative under the laws of intestacy when there was no will is also an inheritance.
It depends. Depending on the interest of the Trustee in Bankruptcy, and whether or not they have abandoned the property, will determine whether or not the debtor in Bankruptcy will be permitted to take the property if the creditor has abandoned the property. Bottom line is that it depends on the facts, contact your Bankruptcy attorney or a reputable Bankruptcy attorney to get more information.
Well they just don't go away if you ignore them if that's what you mean. The taxes will be a claim, a secured claim, in your BK. It will affect what is availabel to pay others and may well affect your chances to save the property they are on.
