Tax refunds go to ??

[paradise lost]

We always got a tax refund. Is this a thing of the past? Being I will file soon after meeting the atty next Friday, will I be able to squeek 1 more tax refund with a rapid refund?? Feel like rat holing any cash I can get for an allowance.

every trustee handles this issue differently. Check your local rules on your trustee's website to be sure.

During our time we were able to keep all of our tax refunds.
During the entire 4 years we had no contact with attorney or trustee unless we initiated it.

I have to give all above $250

I had to give 100 percent. The answers here will be all over the place as every district handles the situation different. Like I said, check out your trustee's website for the local rules and research tax refunds and returns. Then you will know what YOUR trustee wants.

Ohio recently added the Earned Income Tax Credit and the Child Tax Credit to the Exemptions list!

I was curious on this. Our attorney just told me 5 mins. ago when I called him that we needed to max out our exemptions on our pay because the trustee would get our tax returns. This really sucks this year, because our refunds are generally right over 3k...and we won't get it this year That would have taken care of a medical bill that I wanted to pay off to be in good standing with my dr. or could have helped us pay vacation (if we are allowed to have one?)???

Maxing Exemptions

Our atty told us the same thing. She had to include the tax refund as income whether we got it as a refund or if we got it throughout the year. Either way, it was income and would go towards determining our plan amount. I'm hopign we guessed correctly and won't owe come April 15th!
