Many people file  for bankruptcy to get out of their debt obligations. While bankruptcy courts can discharge many debts, some types of debts cannot be discharged.

The types of debts that can be discharged typically vary by state. However, some common debts that cannot be discharged include tax claims, child support, student loan debts, and other debts owed to the government.
