Taxes In Bankruptcy
- Taxes need to be done ASAP if you are filing for bankruptcy!
You will have a short amount of time to file your taxes after filing for bankruptcy, so you should do it before filing. If you don’t file them on time, your bankruptcy case will be dismissed!
Because the vast majority of tax preparers are very slow off season on getting taxes done, you must use “AKO Preparers” , Angie Okita at 302-464-8459 / AkoPreparers@gmail.com / http://AkoPreparers.com. They will get them done as fast as we need them. Have them email them to you because we need signed copies of them ASAP!
