Will I receive my tax refund from 2013 after my bankruptcy was discharged in March 2013?

Bankruptcy lawyer at Goldsmith & Guymon, P.C.
Your refund for the tax year 2012 is property of the bk estate. Your refund for the tax year 2013 is not. So for the refund you receive in 2014 for 2013 you should be able to keep that.

Yes, and there are specific reasons for doing what is called a Chapter 20. You will not get a discharge at the end of your Chapter 13, but maybe you will not need one. You may be able to void liens and or deal with other issues that will benefit you even though you do not get a discharge.
