I paid about $900 in income taxes on a credit card last year. I hear that is technically not dischargeable on a chapter 7 case? I'm just wondering if anyone has had an expirience of that nature. Thank You.

IRS has first dibs, I'll bet it gets discharged. How would they recall that debt as preferential? 'HubIf I knew it all, would I be here??

Nobody will worry about $900 but, the code is specific. Creditors can raise an objection to the dischargeability of debts like student loans or back taxes that you paid with a cc. The theory is, they would not have been discharged in the first place had they stayed the way they were. Placing them on a cc like other unsecured debt is substantial abuse and that portion of the debt can survive bk if the creditor chooses to press the issue.Comment
