SOA - Advice Please

Posts: 55 Forumite
Hi everyone,
Am pushing for my own bankruptcy ASAP now and have done my SOA which I would like some advice on. I live on my own and have my child stay with me two nights a week, so I was wondering if I could push up any of the costs on my SOA. I already pay £45 per week maintenance but obviously theres food/clothes/toys, etc, that I get the kiddo.
Here is my SOA. Can you please check it for me in case I have missed something. Thanks in advance.
