Hi
the debts will be included in the bankruptcy.
however any assets you had at the time, or any interest the trustee has in your property, will be used to pay off some or all of the debts.
the trustee can sell the house to clear the debts in br plus their fees etc. i know of a lady who was made br by the council for council tax - £2000 - and has now had her house sold even though there was £250000 of equity in it.
your case sounds a little to complicated to understand in sections so i would recommend you call either the helpline or an assisted bankruptcy specialist to have a telephone discussion about your options and position.
hope this helps

sorry forgot to say that a liability order for previous years council tax can be challenged by Br and likely overturned

Hi
if you were made bankrupt for certain debts then these would be written off in the bankruptcy. ( only caveat is that if you had a property and the trustee declared an interest then there may be some claim on your current position)
Council tax is generally written off - for previous tax years - in bankruptcy
