How can I avoid pushing a debt off to a co signer if I file bankruptcy?

Brian D. Zinn
Answered by attorney Brian D. Zinn
Bankruptcy lawyer at ZinnLaw PLLC
Your grandmother is still liable on the loan.  If you decide to surrender the vehicle, you discharge your own liability, but unfortunately, not your grandmother's liability.  If you decide to keep the vehicle and keep paying the loan, then the loan company will not attempt to collect against the grandmother as long as you are paying the loan.  You should speak with an attorney in your geographic area about this.

Can IRS debt be discharged in chapter 7 bankruptcy?

Answered by attorney Gregory J Wald (Unclaimed Profile)
Bankruptcy lawyer at Gregory J. Wald
This tax debt probably is dischargeable in bankruptcy because the returns have been due for more than three years and you filed the tax returns more than two years ago. You would also want to make sure that the taxes were assessed more than 240 days (8 months) ago. However, keep in mind that certain things can stop the running of the time periods, such as an offer in compromise or a previous bankruptcy case. Also you cannot have attempted to evade the tax.
