[CNYBBA-LISTSERV] IRS Collections

[Mark Swimelar]

Maybe the IRS filed a warrant and that would make them a secured creditor.
If they are secured the discharge wouldn't apply to them. (It's called a
warrant or levy, I can never remember.) You might want to call Bill Larkin
at the US Attorneys Office. He's always helpful. Or Robert Lusicak or Sandy
LaPlante at the Utica IRS office. That number is 793-8165. I guess I'd call
Bob or Sandy first since they can pull this stuff up and probably give you a
quick answer. Mark

I was recently asked about the IRS trying to collect for old (some going
back to the 80's) income taxes in a discharged no-asset chapter 7.  The IRS
was listed.  It was my understanding that taxes that were more than 3 years
old and had been timely filed were discharged.  This isn't the first time
I've heard this complaint and it makes me wonder, on what is the IRS relying
in trying to collect these?  Any recommendations on dealing with the IRS
under these circumstances?
