Bankrupcy help please

You earn approximately 33% of the household income so the OR will probably say you are responsible for 33% of the household bills and your husband for the rest. Depending on how the OR treats the mortgage, you might be looking at an IPA on these numbers.

You say the house was gifted yet your husband is paying a mortgage, so I assume only a portion of the entire value of the house was gifted? Is there anything apart from the deeds or whatever to prove that the gift was to your husband only and not you as a couple (not sure if that's legally possible anyway as you're married but maybe).

I think you'll be alright, providing you haven't contributed financially to the property in any way and therefore wouldn't be entitled to any of the proceeds should the house be sold. However, worst case scenario I would add up what your beneficial interest could potentially be - e.g. half the mortgage payments for x number of months - and consider getting someone like your husband or his parents on standby to buy you out if necessary. If you haven't lived in the house for long it shouldn't add up to much.

It might indeed be worth getting advice from a specialist before pressing the button.

Also, any chance your car is worth £400 less? Assuming you need it for childcare/commuting the OR likes a car to be worth no more than a grand ideally.

Hi,

Add £250 to your groceries, up your holidays to £60 and put £60 in for entertainment / leisure. Put another £60 on to clothing.

Despite the need to always advise people that they may have established a beneficial interest in someone else's property - my large debt team have never seen the Insolvency Service attempt to claim a property that is solely owned by the non bankrupt partner, and we have had many bankruptcies where this was the property position.
