Either way they will want a tax return filed before filing for chapter 13.

If you are expecting a refund then they will seize it if it is after so to keep the money file first and wait for the return, it will be considered as part of your income.

If you owe it is better to know the amount before filing.

What do you have to do with your tax return money if filing chapter 7?

You should wait until your refund is received and be sure to spend it on necessities or items that would be exempt anyway. Never file right before a large refund is due, the trustee will take it and apply it to your debt. In some cases you might have to wait to file Chapter 7 for quite a few months in order to protect your refund. For instance, if you feel the pressure to file in the fall, but are expecting a refund after the new year that would be a span of up to four or five months. Is it worth it to wait? Some people can't take the creditors hounding them an extra few months. Those persons might be better off just giving up the refund to the trustee.

File Your Taxes Early?

If you want to receive a refund as soon as possible, then you should be sure to file as early as possible. When the IRS receives thousands of tax applications, there is a waiting period for people who want to receive their refund. If you file before the big rush, the IRS will have more time to send you a refund as soon as possible. Filing as early as possible in January will allow you to get a refund check in the mail within a week or so. If you wait until April, it may be months before you see a refund check.

When you will receive your refund?

It all depends on how you file. If you file the standard "mail-in" way, expect a refund in 4-6 weeks. If you do them online or with a tax professional, the wait time is usually two weeks. Some tax professionals can file what is known as a "Refund Anticipation Loan", or RAL for short. For a fee, you can get your tax refund the next day, sometimes within hours. Be noted, however, that these are actual bank loans on your tax refund and not an actual refund itself.
