? · Answer

Regardless of the type of bankruptcy, you will never get out of a federal tax debt.

You squeaked by with it this year, but next year, I'd wager you won't be so lucky.

Keep this number for next year 1-800-304-3107.  You can follow the prompts and enter your SSN.

It will tell you whether or not you have a federal debt associated with your SSN, and it will tell you how much and a number to call.

But, long story short, yes you DO still owe it, taxes are NOT dischargeable in bankruptcy.

Federal tax debt is not part of bankruptcy in 99% of cases.  You likely still owe that money.  Try asking the lawyer who did your bankruptcy.

you probably need to ask your lawyer to inquire with the b/k judge
generally income tax liabilities are at the top of the repayment ladder along with secured loans 
and rarely if ever are they discharged in b/k
you might find the location of your area's 'stakeholder liason' or the Tax Advocate
