341A meeting/taxesWhat is the name of your state? az Attorney Filed Chapter 7 on the 23rd of September Got a letter from Trustee Confused - I understand this part totally- wants copies of our 2001-2002 taxes and our 2003 taxes and not to file our 2003 taxes electronically- don not cash any refunds- until you receive authorizations from the trustee- The part that confused me is not to file our 2003 taxes electronically-- We have always did - Then there was another letter in the package he sent us - That our 2003 taxes we give the IRS approval to send the Fedearl refund check to the Trustee- Why do they want our 2003 refund when we filed this year ? Are they going to take it and we get nothing- Our attorney never told us about this - We filed mostly on Medical and a 4 credit cards. repo van and house- we own nothing !! |

| As far as the Trustee is concerned, at this time of year, money you have coming to you in a tax refund is part of your bankruptcy estate - and the Trustee WILL take it. I'm not sure I understand the ban against filing electronically, that makes no sense - unless it has something to do with flagging the refund to go to the Trustee instead of you.

| My refund last year was a whopping $35 !!! I am currently paying the IRS for 2002 taxes due - and I won't be finished paying THAT off until almost June of next year.. so when I file for BK, the Trustee's not going to get anything anyway.. the IRS will take whatever I *might* end up getting back to offset what I owe for 2002. At best, IF I were to get ANY refund for 2003, it would probably amount to less than $200-300. Against what I'll be asking to have dishcharged - that amount wouldn't even be a drop in the bucket. Its possible the Trustee won't take it at all if its not much... definitely ask your lawyer what's typical for Trustees in your district.

| Update - Yes I did call here is the deal- The taxes are in the trustee's hands - He can take 10/12'ths of if I get 2/12 because I filed in October - He can take anything over 1000.00 or he can be nice and give it all back to me- it depends on his mood - |
