Answer
You need to 1. verify that they got the bankruptcy notice (this is the government after all)  2. that you did not incur any overpayment since the date your case was filed for which they could apply it towards.

Your bankruptcy attorney should be able to help you with this.
I know it may be a headache, good luck.
