    Tax return after filing Chapter 7

    I am not sure where to post this. We filed BK 7 and got our discharge last June 2008. Our taxes for '08 are pretty simple so I am planning to file myself - Is there anything at all I need to do or know related to the BK?

    Ok - I should have searched a little more - I found an old thread saying we do not need to do anything different or report the BK in any way. We were a no asset chpater 7 with no issues so that is what I figured but you just nevr know. Never mind this thread unless someone has anything new to add or qualify.

      At my 341 meeting the trustee gave me a paper with instructions that said when I file my 2008 return to get a check, not direct deposit and send the unendorsed check along with a copy of my return to her and she would determine if/what they were going to do with it.

        Discharged in June ? When was it closed? Once closed it's over and done with.I think any tax return is yours to keep.

          When did you have that hearing?

            I had my 341 today. However, I exempted my 2008 tax return as expected income. The trustee did not say anything. I suppose it was because I had quite a bit of room left over for exemptions.

              Let me clarify - I was not concerned that I would get a refund and need to give it to the trustee - I know that would have happened before the discharge. I just wondered if I had to report to the IRS any of the debt that was discharged last year or something like that---like you have to do if you work out a settlement with the CC company.
              I am assuming brokenbuthealed has had the 341 and the trustee knew they were going to get some money and considered it an asset. Totally different situation. I was just overthinking things in my own situations when I posted this.
