Tax Debt Advisors, Inc.—I successfully filed a bankruptcy, why is there still a tax lien against my home in Chandler AZ?
A chapter 7 bankruptcy does remove the tax debt but the IRS tax lien will survive the bankruptcy. Unless further action is taken the lien will stay on the home until the statute of limitations runs out. This can be as long as ten years. If you sell the Chandler AZ home with a lien still attached, then if there is anything left over after the mortgage is paid, the IRS will get the rest up to the amount of the tax lien.
However, if you have zero equity in the home after the lien has been filed and the bankruptcy discharged and you can prove with certified appraisals, there is a way to get the lien removed. If you are seeking to have your Chandler AZ IRS tax lien removed from your home, you need to contact Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. Scott offers a free initial consultation and will discuss your chance of succeeding in the process. You can schedule an appointment with Tax Debt Advisors, Inc. calling 480-926-9300.
