Outstanding Debt, Income Tax and Debt Consolidation

To avoid bankruptcy, I have chosen a debt consolidation loan from the bank to pay all outstanding taxes owed from my previous self employed status. I have since closed the business and I am now a full time employee for another company. Can any of this debt or loss be deducted on my upcoming personal income tax?

Whether this constitutes a tax deductible expense depends on the details of the transactions and you are best advised to contact a tax consultant.
