If you have a "forgiven debt", which means that your creditor is giving up on trying to collect from you, if it is over $500 then they are required to fill out a 1099-C for the IRS. If your debt is forgiven than the IRS considers the forgiven debt as income that you must pay taxes on. This is what the 1099-C is for.
