can you include tax debt in bankruptcy?
Typically, you can’t eliminate income tax liability by filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, but an exception exists. Chapter 7 can wipe out an obligation to pay income tax debt if:
- the tax is old enough
- you didn’t commit tax fraud
- you meet all other rules imposed by your court jurisdiction, and
- the taxing authority hasn’t put a lien on your property.
