Learning Objective

  • To identify which taxes can be eliminated in bankruptcy and which cannot.
  • To recognize taxes in bankruptcy more than most bankruptcy attorneys know.
  • To identify various ways of making money and avoid malpractice with clients owing large amounts to the IRS.

Course Overview

Bankruptcy is a legal process available to an individual or business to either eliminate debt or reorganize their debt so they can move forward. Through this process, you may be able to stop foreclosures and repossessions, stop harassing creditor phone calls, stop creditor lawsuits, and eliminate debt. 

Several bankruptcy options may be filed; Chapter 7, Chapter 11, and Chapter 13 are the most common. Which of these bankruptcy chapters you may be qualified to file depends on many different criteria and questions to be answered.

Since the bankruptcy code has several rules that have to be followed to discharge Tax debt. The answer to this question should come from someone like tax attorney Larry Heinkel who has helped thousands of people like you since 1983 to make the right decision for their situation.

There are several options to eliminate your tax debt, including:

  • A payment plan,
  • A settlement via Offer in Compromise (OIC),
  • Challenging the actual amount of the liability, and
  • Discharging the tax debt through bankruptcy. 

This CE Tax webinar covers the following key topics:

  • Learn how “older” income taxes can be discharged in bankruptcy. 
  • Learn how an OIC is not always the only (or BEST!) option for the affluent taxpayer. 
  • Learn how to make money and avoid malpractice by advising clients and bankruptcy attorneys when and whether a tax debt can be eliminated through bankruptcy.
