Hi Candy,

If you received a 1099A form and the property was sold for an amount less than what you owed, you will be liable for the deficiency. If this deficiency is discharged, it will be considered as your taxable income and you need to report it to the IRS. If the debt is discharged through bankruptcy, you will not be taxed. But since your bankruptcy case was dismissed before the discharge, you will have to pay tax on the income due to discharge of indebtedness.

However, did you use the property as your primary residence? In that case, you can claim exemption from paying taxes on this discharged debt under the Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act of 2007.
