CRA registered a tax lien on my house after going bankrupt

I declared bankruptcy Sept 17, 2009, and I just received notice that CRA registered a tax lien on my home October 1, 2009. They were listed as one of the unsecured creditors in my bankruptcy. Are they allowed to register this lien after I go bankrupt?

No, CRA may not register a lien on your property after you have filed – you should be speaking to your trustee about this. It should be a simple matter of asking CRA to remove the lien as it was registered after you filed.
