    You add together things like the car stuff. There is also a drop down box at the end.

    Do you have breakdown cover, any professional/union fees, dry cleaning?

    Hope some of that helps.

    So i dont know how this looks?? On the online forms the screen looks like this

    How much do you spend each month on the following: Mortgage payments or rent on your home £Housekeeping (including food and cleaning) £Gas, electricity, other heating £Water £Telephone charges £Travelling to and from work and other essential journeys £Clothing £Maintenance payments and fines £Council tax £Other essential payments (e.g. life/household insurance, car tax & repairs) £If there are other essential payments, provide detailsof these payments

    Its a bit more general online. The start is fairly straightfoward. I presume you just add it all together, Car Tax, repairs etc? And do you just paste the remainder of the SOA above? Also i have listed our full wages on her. I have been told you list a percentage? Is this right?

    as inbetween them 2 boxes when you print it out a total box appears

  • hiya steve - whens your date for br? I should be having my OR interview monday so will let you know about my and OHS soa form cos we were having the same issues with the form - in the end I kept all full payments for everything apart from haircuts - clothes and did for me and 2 kids and same on OH form then how ever much I was short on the difference was the amount the OH contributed to me and visa versa - does that make sense at all????? any how will see what my OR says and will post to let you know - if I cant find this thread at the time will start a new one so keep you eyes peeled :O)
  • Hi Clanbailey! Its Wed 14th. :eek:

    Its so confusing when you are both going BR. I think i know what "lisamummytoarchieplusbump" is on about. I think if theres any discrepencies, then we can go through them with the OR. So much trouble with mine, but i think once mine is done the OH should just be a breeze:confused:

    We'll see!!
