Okay, now I am a little confused with the talk about tax refunds. We have always received around $4000 back from our income taxes. Nothing was ever mentioned about it int he 341 meeting and we never received anything stating that the trustee wanted it. Our case was discharged and closed in January. I called my attorney at end of the month and was advised to go ahead and file since the case was closed. So, I did. Now should I worry that my attorney had me do the wrong thing-since it was mentioned that they can take that money for up to 6 months after filing?

It really depends on the state you live in. My mom just filed recently in Illinois and nothing was mentioned about her tax refund either. The same goes for when she filed 11 years ago. We live in Indiana, we just moved here and our trustee wants our refund.

Where did you get that crap?

Keeping your refund has NOTHING to do with what state you live in!

It ALL depends on what the TRUSTEE has in mind... IF you owe a bejeezus amount and are getting a LARGE sum back from taxes, you can kiss that refund goodbye, and vice versa...

Once again though, it ALL depends on what the TRUSTEE thinks of the amount vs. what you owe...
