American Tax Laws
American tax law says that when a debt forgiven in
foreclosure exceeds the fair market value (FMV) of the
mortgaged house, then the difference is income, and
therefore taxable. That is because the borrower “received” a
greater benefit than they would have if they had sold the
house themselves.
Form 1099-C
Your lender is obliged to provide you with a Form 1099-C on
which the debt forgiven and the FMV both appear. If your
home has already been auctioned, the FMV will be the sale
price. If not, your lender may have indicated a higher estimate.
This is one good reason not to let things like this drag on – if
you are lucky, the estimated higher FMV could be to your tax
advantage. In either case, determine whether the foreclosure
resulted in a "taxable income” or not.
What’s does that mean? Assets and Liabilities

value of your total assets (car, television, clothes etc) and
compare this with the total of your outstanding debt. If the
result is a negative value, this can come off your “taxable
foreclosure income” too, potentially helping you to manage
your foreclosure tax obligations even more.
