If a creditor discharged a debt of $600 or more, you should receive a Form 1099-C from the IRS showing the amount of debt forgiven for that tax year.

@Robert Howard,I think the advantage to Brandon's strategy is that it uses something other than student loans which cannot be discharged in a bankruptcy.

I have certainly learned a great deal about zero impact manufactured homes from the one industry expert that knows what they are talking about when it comes to solar powered, zero discharge, homes in the last two years, and may be soon putting that to profitable use as an investment.Again, I agree with Matt.

I spent most of yesterday cutting upward into the bottom of a hundred-year-old cast iron toilet discharge with an angle grinder.

If it discharges next to your house, that might be your main issue. 

The only POSSIBLE way I could see this being an issue is if you denied housing to a veteran because they did not have an honorable discharge, and the less than honorable discharge was due to being homosexual or bisexual from back when that was banned.

This was supposedly a safety issue; the meters have a pressure regulator that in the case of really excess pressure can relieve pressure by a slight discharge of gas - not a safe thing to do in an enclosed space.This year, the very same house, the gas company had to put in a new gas line from the street to the house due to a new higher pressure gas main being put into service.

It simply sets the debtor up for a repayment plan over 3 to 5 years and makes their life miserable and credit stays frozen over that time.A large percentage 80 to 90% never finish the plan to full discharge.

If it has been damaged in anyway - or if it appears they have been using it inappropriately (like sub-leasing, a business, etc) you can include that in your request with the court as another reason for termination.The good news here is that once a bankruptcy court orders them to pay - failure to do so will discharge their bankruptcy filing and you'll be back at eviction with full right to go after back rent due.

What if the owner is discharged from all of that.
