Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Virginia
Bankruptcy and Social Security Disability payments
I have been notified by the Social Security Administration that I owe over $60,000 for disability benefits they now say that I was not eligible for. I am considering filing for bankruptcy because I would not be able to pay this amount or any amount even close to that.
I know that most tax debts are not discharged by filing for bankruptcy. My question is are disability benefit debts wiped out by filing for bankruptcy.
Many thanks

Unless you fraudulently obtained the overpayment, it would be dischargeable.
