What happens in the next tax year after bankruptcy? Do you pay tax?

    At one time HMRC were a 'preferential creditor' - in effect they got their dues no matter what, they were front of the queue so to speak. These days they're no longer preferential so are not allowed to deduct tax. This is because the receiver may request this money for other creditors.
