Is your road tax really £24.50 per month? I guess it is quite an old car?
The rest of it looks ok but ideally you would have something in emergency fund although it does not look as if there is any leeway for that. Are you claiming single person discount for council tax and paying over 12 instead of 10 months? If the mobile phone is not in contract you could get that a lot cheaper than £46.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free Wannabe, Budgeting and Banking and Savings and Investment boards.

The car is a 51 plate so that's why the car tax is cheap.
I sometimes get a bonus from my work every year (6% of salary).
Do I need to put this in my soa when going bankrupt?0 -
Hi you need to average out any bonus that you actually get.
I think your expenses are fine - in-fact, another £15 pm on clothing is sensible and your groceries are very low - another £150 pm to add in my opinion. Bankruptcy is not meant to starve you !

Even tho the OP doesnt get a bonus until March, they still need to include it in the Income and Expenditure?
What if the OP has spent the money already and would the OR not see that £250 was coming out of their account for groceries?0 -
wasn't coming out of their account?0

Sounds about right. I have a 2 litre 51 plate Focus (Petrol). My next years road tax is due to be £305.0
