    Imputed income during chapter 13

    Hi, I’m 3 years into my bankruptcy and have added my domestic partner onto my insurance which is 100% covered by my company but wasn’t aware of the imputed income that it would show on W-2 in the future. Will this cause any problems? Does anyone have experience with imputed income?

    I don't think it will be an issue at all. Unless someone is looking closely, you don't even notice the imputed income for health insurance on a paystub. That amount would be so negligible, it wouldn't raise any eyebrows since it should be nowhere near the "hypothetical" 10% that we throw around. Even if it were more than 10% of your income and somehow the Trustee wondered, it's 100% paid. The only thing it is affecting are the taxes paid.

      Okay Thanks justbroke! I was concerned with it showing up as taxable income on my W-2 for next year if that would be an issue

        So long as it's not significant. By significant, most of us here just look at whether the income increased by more than 10%. So, for your Box 1 on the W-2, if that shows 10% more than the prior year, the Chapter 13 Trustee may be interested in reviewing your Schedule I/J to have it recalculated. I don't think your imputed income changed by over 10% just for the additional person on the insurance.

        I have imputed income based on my benefits as well.
