Advice on Bankruptcy – The BEST WAY to avoid any potential loss of your income tax refund:
Is to discuss your situation with an experienced bankruptcy attorney or law firm, such as Georgia Bankruptcy Attorneys, a division of Brian Poe & Associates, Attorneys, PC.
In many cases we can exempt all or a portion of your tax refund, so you can keep the money after you file. The best guidance is to spend the money on goods and services that are reasonable and necessary.
Luxury good purchases like electronics, vacations and jewelry should be avoided.
Likewise gifts to family and friends, shopping sprees and gambling should all be avoided.
The following are considered safe (and to the extend that these are payments towards assets, these are most often “exempt” assets as well):
Auto Insurance
Auto Repairs (basic)
Car payments
Child Support Arrears
Clothing
Dental Work
Food
Medical Bills
Medicine
Mortgage payments
Rent payments
Tax Debts
Utility Bills
