My company is offering gas/fuel credit cards to our technicians in lieu of a vehicle allowance. However, HR is advising the techs that the cards are considered income and are therefore taxable. Is this true?

AWW asked:
We live in CA. My husband and I were thinking about filing together for bankruptcy. However, he just received a personal injury settlement that is enough to pay off my credit cards and save my credit. If he does file for bankruptcy it wouldn’t be for a few months from now at least. Can he use the settlement money for this purpose or will this hinder his bankruptcy proceedings?

We’ve been paying our bills on time for the past few months and have raised our credit score a great deal. Can I call the cards that have a high interest rate and see if they can lower them? Or will they not do that? Thanks.
