Bankruptcy

In limited circumstances, Chapter 7 bankruptcy is an effective tool for obtaining tax relief. In contrast, Chapter 7 bankruptcy will not help you deal with the following issues:

• Unfiled tax returns
• Recently filed tax returns
• Trust-type taxes

The limited tax relief bankruptcy provides is frequently disappointing to taxpayers. In addition, although a bankruptcy discharged the underlying debt, there may still be lingering issues with federal tax liens.

To determine whether bankruptcy will provide you the relief you expect regarding your unpaid tax liability, make sure you closely question your bankruptcy attorney during this phase. Taxes are one of the most complicated laws in bankruptcy, according to many bankruptcy practitioners.

In some cases, bankruptcy may be the most effective way to deal with taxes; however, it should be the last resort. If you are struggling with a tax liability and do not want to damage your credit, there are a number of other options short of bankruptcy that can help.
