It literally depends on what you signed when you filed for bankruptcy. Under the law, your trustee will automatically receive your tax refund for the year you file and all previous years. For example, if you filed Jan 1, 2012 then your trustee would receive your 2012, 2011 and any other year prior to that you may be entitled to a refund for in the future.
Some trustees ask you to sign-over your refunds for the period you remain bankrupt – we don’t because I think it is punative, but if you sign the form when your trustee puts it in front of you then they will keep receiving your refunds until whatever year you authorized on the form. Sorry, you need to discuss this with the trustee you used to file.
