Can I make my tax debt go away by filing bankruptcy?

Maybe! It depends on the type of tax you owe, how long it has been since you filed your return, how long it has been since the IRS formally assessed the amount you owe, and what type of bankruptcy you file.

Trust fund taxes cannot be erased through bankruptcy. Income taxes may be erased through bankruptcy under certain circumstances. Filing bankruptcy too early or filing the wrong type of bankruptcy can be devastating. We can show you whether bankruptcy is a viable option for you.
