Going to file in feb-march what should i do with taxes?

[CCA1984]

Hey everyone,

I've only been on here for awhile now but must say I appreciate all the help and answers. I had my consultation with the attorney and must say I was very impressed and excited for him to say I qualified for ch 7( i did the means test and passed) also made me feel alot better with knowing I would be able to keep my house and car. Big thanks to everyone for the help/support.

Onto my question; I wanted to know if i file in feb-march should i file my taxes before or after I get the ball rolling for my case ? I hope that doesn't sound like i'm trying to rip anyone off, Just curious if it would make a difference. I have to wait a little longer to feb-march since I had to make a $700 purchase for my vehicle that broke down and wanted to make sure I was in the clear. Any help would be greatly appreciated and hope you and your family have a great thanksgiving.

You need to ask your lawyer if any refund can be exempted.
If not, delay filing until you reeive and spend the refund.
If the refund can't be exempted, it makes no difference when you file. The trustee can keep your bk open until you turnover the refund.
