Re: owe taxes
I don't see any reason why you could not amend your Chapter 13 plan to include the taxes. I assume that they relate to after you filed. In fact, in my experience, the IRS might DEMAND that you amend your plan. If you have an attorney, tell him/her to look at 11 USC �1305(a). If you don't have an attorney, call me and I'll try to help you out. David Baker 617-367-4260
