Tax Aspects of Bankruptcy
If you owe past due federal taxes that you cannot pay, bankruptcy may be an option. Other options include an IRS Installment Agreement or an Offer In Compromise.
If you have filed bankruptcy and have a question about an open bankruptcy, you may contact the IRS’ Centralized Insolvency Operations Unit, Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., EST, at 1-800-973-0424.
For individuals, the most common type of bankruptcy is a Chapter 13. Before you consider filing a Chapter 13 here are some things you should know:
- You must file all required tax returns for tax periods ending within four years of your bankruptcy filing
- During your bankruptcy you must continue to file, or get an extension of time to file, all required returns.
- During your bankruptcy case you should pay all current taxes as they come due.
- Failure to file returns and/or pay current taxes during your bankruptcy may result in your case being dismissed.
Partnerships and corporations file bankruptcy under Chapter 7 or Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy code. Individuals may also file under Chapter 7 or Chapter 11.
