341 Tommorrow 4/2

[phoenyx]

Holy crap! I hope the IRS doesn't attend 341's. If so, that gives me reason to be extremely nervous. I'm filing next week and they are owed big time (non-dischargeable taxes) and still trying to stay ahead of a lien, garnishment or levy. I was planning to deal with them after the discharge. If they are there I will probably throw up.

First, ask your attorney whether the IRS is usually there, and I'm sure they will know for your bankruptcy district.

Secondly, you listed the IRS as a creditor, right?

Even if you don't owe tham any money? That seems strange to me

I can't say for sure because I haven't been to a 341 meeting yet. However, since many debtors have their 341 meetings back to back, the IRS might be there for another debtor and ask a quick question to others. *shrug*

I believe the IRS is at all 341's. They had a list of names on a piece of paper of all the cases on the docket for the day.

2nd that - is it normal for the IRS to be there?

Update: it went pretty good. It was quick. The IRS was there and asked if we had a active audit both of us said no. Then they asked if we had a business. At first we said no, but then I said yes, that we had a nuritional product internet based business in 2005 & 2006 that was a pure loss. Not sure why the IRS was grilling us. The trustee's representative was pretty cool. There was a mistake on the mean test that the attorney needs to fix. Then the trustee said we don't meet the plan and I about pooped myself I was so nervous. Then he pulled it up and said from what I see you meet the plan. Then he said the meeting was conducted and excused us.

Now I wait for the confirmation hearing.

How did it go?

Bump!

How did it go?

You will be fine - just respond to YES - NO to 90% of the questions and it will be ok.
As always dont give more info than what they are asking.

The simple fact is: it does not matter how you got into unmanageable debt. Unless, of course, you are deliberately "gaming the system". Then, you would have to be pretty darned clever to avoid detection. The October 2005 code revisions have made it very difficult to escape responsibility entirely.

You see people using credit cards to purchase their morning coffee, for heaven's sake. What does that tell you? A lot..but that's really another story...

Good luck!

[DebtHeadache]

Thank you all. Your encouragement means the world too me.

My husband told me to shut my mouth as I do have a BIG mouth that often gets me into trouble.

[Cassiopeia]

Good luck. I PROMISE PROMISE PROMISE it will be nowhere as bad as you think. And chances are you will not even be asked "how you got in this mess."

Most people say the 341 is short and very simple. You will leave there and feel like cracking open a bottle of champagne. Trust me.
