Use Your Tax Refund to File Bankruptcy - Episode 449

Do you get a tax refund every year? 

Is that a good thing?

If you're in financial distress, what can you do with your tax refund?

On this week's episode of the Crushing Debt podcast, Shawn & George talk about tax refunds, how tax refunds are treated in Chapter 7 or 13 bankruptcy, what to do so that your refund is less but your take-home pay is more, and other topics related to bankruptcy.

For example, did you know that Child Support and Alimony are not dischargeable in a bankruptcy? What about Homeowner Association and Condo Association liens? What happens to a debt in bankruptcy when one co-signor files for bankruptcy but the other does not?
