Can I do a bankruptcy for federal restitution? I have been paying now for roughly 5 years the minimum due to the social security I receive. I still owe @ 50.000 due to receiving food stamps while my husband was working. He has passed away since. What are the alternatives for me? I know taxes can be taken out but not about restitution. Lease advise... thanks

Hello g:

You cannot discharge restitution in bankruptcy.
