In October of 2005 the new bankruptcy laws, otherwise known as BAPCPA of 2005 [ Bankruptcy Abuse Prevention and Consumer Protection Act] went into effect which expressly require that debtors submit tax returns.

You may ask the Trustee to give you some consideration, but he is obligated to request them. Some courts may only ask for 1 year while others may request to see 2 years.

You should definitely file if the Trustee insists on the returns since he has the power to obstruct your discharge.
