Hi Guest,
If you receive tax refunds, you will have to surrender it to the bankruptcy trustee who will use it to pay off your creditors. You can contact your bankruptcy lawyer and he will let you know whether or not you should file your taxes now.

I agree with you Adonis. It is better to wait for the suggestion of your lawyer as he/she knows well how to handle case like this.
