Discharging Back Taxes

A San Jose Bankruptcy Lawyer Discusses Discharging Back Taxes...

In our current economic climate, many people are having difficulty keeping up with all of their debts. While many of us think of bankruptcy as being for debts such as credit cards and auto loans, a significant number of people are also having trouble with back taxes. Forunately for these people, taxes are often dischargable in a bankruptcy.

Whether or not your taxes can be discharged depends on various factors. When the taxes were due to be filed and when they were actually filed are two of the major factors involved in determining whether or not the taxes can be discharged, though the courts will also look at other aspects of your situation, such as whether or not you intentionally evaded the IRS.
In order to determine whether or not your taxes can be discharged in a bankruptcy, we suggest contacting a lawyer in your area.
