There are three federal bankruptcy districts in Oklahoma as shown on the above map.
- Eastern District Bankruptcy Court (Okmulgee)
- Northern District Bankruptcy Court (Tulsa)
- Western District Bankruptcy Court (Oklahoma City)

Hello. My name is Laura, I’m a 35 year old female. I tried filing in 2006, but it didn’t go through b/c I did it myself, used one of those inexpensive online preparation services, got ripped off, and my bankruptcy didn’t get discharged.
I have been needing to file these past 4 years but thought I couldn’t b/c I haven’t filed my taxes since 2005 and I read recently I could. The state of OK as called me recently and since the clean slate 08 when the tax debt doubled, they informed me I have a year to pay off that debt starting in April or they’ll start proceedings of involuntary payment… which there’s already a garnishment and I cannot afford that. I did read I can file on any taxes on the recent 3 years but my state tax debt is older than that. I need to file as soon as I possibly can.
Make a long story short, I’ve never been able to afford anything and been struggling all this time. Finally, now I have a job where if I were able to start fresh, no tax burden, paying taxes like I’m supposed to be, I can live free and clear and begin to build a real future for myself in respect to buying a home one day. I really just want to live right.
Laura
Laura,
