Another Means Test Question

08-13-2010, 10:08 AM

I have searched the forum and not found a good answer to this question.

Do your real estate taxes get deducted on the means test? I pay $300 per month in real estate taxes that aren't included as part of my mortgage.
Will I get to claim those.

Thanks

Yes - there is a place for property taxes.

Get mortgage modified: DONE! 7 months of back interest payments amortized, payment reduced over $200/mo
(In the 'planning' stage, to file ch. 13 if/when we have to.)

real estate taxes on means test

I did not see a good place for them......maybe add them into the amount of line 20B (b) and check taxes/ins not included on line 42. ??
