Yes, a business can seek bankruptcy protection to address back Business Taxes, but the ability to discharge those tax debts depends on several factors. Generally, income taxes may be discharged if they meet specific criteria, such as being filed on time and being at least three years old. However, payroll taxes and certain other tax obligations are typically non-dischargeable. It's essential for businesses to consult with a bankruptcy attorney to navigate these complexities effectively.
