I really don't understand whether or not we need to claim income from this 1099-A we received.
Box 2 show 308,000.00 and box 4 shows Fair Market Value of 345,000.00. Do we need to claim, as income, the difference between the two amounts which is 37,000.00 or not?

Some creditors and collection agencies refuse to lower the pay off amount, interest rate, and fees owed by the consumer.
Creditors/collection agencies can make collection calls and file lawsuits against the consumers represented by the debt relief companies.
Debt relief services may have a negative impact on the consumer's creditworthiness and his overall debt amount may increase due to the accumulation of extra fees.
The amount which the consumer saves with the use of debt relief services can be regarded as taxable income.
