The bankruptcy options are contained in Chapters 7, 9, 11, 12, and 13 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

When you file a bankruptcy case, what exactly allows you to legally stop paying creditors? What do they get in return?

If you bought your home within the last 39 months or so, federal law may limit the amount of state-law homestead exemption you can use.

If you need more help on payment terms with debts that can’t be discharged, filing Chapter 13 right after Chapter 7 may be your best option.

If you owe too much debt but still need Chapter 13, “Chapter 20” may be your best solution.

With these 5 steps, you can discharge (legally and permanently write off) more of the income taxes you now owe.

If you expect to owe taxes for 2015, either wait until after the end of the year or do a partial-year tax return now and file Chapter 13.

If you’ve struggled to keep a business open but have now decided to close it, and you owe taxes, here’s how to deal with them.
