Send the "forum" SOA with your BR Papers...

As you know many people on the forum get help from the experts if they post their SOA’s.

And with that help - they’ll have a “perfect” Income and Expenditure breakdown.

On the B/R forms there is not enough space to do a full Income & Expenditure.

So would it be a good idea to enclose your own fully prepared Income & Expenditure with your B/R papers? (And has anybody done this)?

I’m guessing it will make life a lot easier during the Interview – and help the Examiner go through everything a lot faster.

Let me know if you do think it's a good idea.

Many Thanks

    Blimey, I thought it was a good idea.

    But nobody has confirmed it (sobs).

    I know some have attached a print out of the SoA they have done on maksenseofcards. On the forms you squidge things together and then there is a drop down box for any other expenditure. It is entirely up to you and may help the OR to see what the break down is properly but entirely up to you.

    Thanks Tigerfeet - personally I do think it would help to send it with the papers.

    Or at least it wouldn't do any harm to send it.
