Nothing. Money owed to the government, state or local have to be satisfied regardless if you file bankruptcy or not.

Tax debt, including state tax liens, is not bankruptable unless the state gives you permission to discharge the debt under extreme circumstances like complete disability. Even if you are disabled, the state tax liens must be listed in the bankruptcy filing to be discharged. If these circumstances are not met, you still owe the debt.

This depends on what the court decides in the bankruptcy hearing. This also depends on the type of bankruptcy filed for. Usually, the liens remain in effect after a bankruptcy is discharged.

State tax liens are not eligible to be included in a bankruptcy. They would not be able to collect during a bankruptcy but once the bankruptcy is over they can.

If they were included in the bankruptcy filing then they would be discharged with the closure of the bankruptcy case.
