I learned something yesterday. Doing a bankruptcy for a Legal Aid client, her income is $4000, but at the creditor's meeting she says she got a tax refund of $4000 this year for 2003. I was dumbfounded. The trustee asks how much her husband makes - $18,000. I'm like, "how do you get a tax refund of $4000?"

She and the trustee turn to me and say in unison, "earned income."

Later she tells me that's the only time she can buy anything, is when she gets her tax refund.
