Hello Holly:
IRS can definitely levy on the proceeds to satisfy back taxes, and the value will add to the value of the lien.

Subject: [cdcbaa] Mesh settlement - community property - back taxes - value of lien? Debtor received a personal injury settlement from the transvaginal mesh litigation. Debtor is separated, and received funds post separation, but the injury occured during marriage. Are the funds CP? Part of the funds are for future medicals. Can the IRS levy on such a settlement for back taxes? Further, if there is a tax lien but the taxes are otherwise dischargeable, will the amount of the settlement figure into the value of the lien if Debtor files CH 7 BK? (I.e. IRS looks at the equity in all assets to determine value of lien at time of filing.) Is there anything "special" about these funds that they can't be levied by IRS or figured into for lien value of dischargeable taxes?
