Back Taxes

Tax Debt in Queens – Bankruptcy Attorney

How to Handle Unpaid Taxes

IRS tax debts can be handled in several ways depending on your financial situation. Some solutions to unpaid taxes include:

  • Offer in Compromise – settle your tax debt
  • Installment Agreement – monthly payments to the IRS
  • File for Bankruptcy

If you decide to file for bankruptcy, certain taxes are eligible for discharge under Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy. In a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you can go through a debt restructuring process, or set up a repayment plan to pay back your debt over time. If you qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, your non-exempt assets are sold and the proceeds go towards ridding you of your debt. In order for taxes to be eligible for discharge under the bankruptcy code, they must meet certain standards:

  • The due date for filing the tax return is more than three years old
  • The tax return was filed more than two years ago
  • The tax assessment is more than 240 days old
  • You were no involved in tax fraud
  • You are not guilty of tax evasion

There are other criteria necessary for discharging debt during a bankruptcy, and specific documents you must file with the court during your bankruptcy case. Contact Queens bankruptcy attorney Bruce Feinstein, Esq. to make sure you meet the requirements for discharging your tax debt through bankruptcy. He can help you file for bankruptcy and take you through the entire process, so you have a professional who can advocate for you during this stressful time.
