Where IRS Form 1099-C has been issued ( or the statutory conditions requiring it have been met ), a legal discharge event has occurred. 5. Any continued attempt to collect, assign, or report this debt post-charge-off or post-discharge constitutes fraud, double accounting, and misrepresentation. II.
