Hello, my name is Mike and I live in Southern California. I've been browsing the forum for a few months and finally decided to file Chapter 7 hopefully within the next 6 months. I've learned a lot just from reading but still have a lot of questions.

The following question however is not for me, but for a neighbor who currently does not have internet access. She has also decided to file, her only income is from Social Security benefits. Shes been retired for about 5 years and has not been required to file a tax return. Will this present a problem?

She actually tried filing this year using TurboTax but was told she could not e-file because none of her income is taxable, and Adjusted Gross Income shows $0. Should she still file a paper form? Will the trustee still require Tax returns from someone who only receives a check from Social Security? Thanks in advance.
