If the tax due was determined more than 3 years before the filing date, you include it in your Schedule F. If you have already filed your bankruptcy documents, you need to file a motion to amend Schedule F with the bankruptcy court. If the case has been closed, you will need to reopen the case, paying the filing fee, and then your motion to add the debt.
