Your reasons for bankruptcy...

...anyone else ramble on a little bit too much, have just copied it out for the third time, filled the space and about a side of the extra information sheets, all seems pretty necessary but worried i may have gone on a wee bit too much, have plenty more that can be explained when I see the OR, just feels a touch too much for the SOA.

    Just say what happened it's not a test. It might help to write it down and this time tomorrow it'll be over.

    I did a bullet pointed list of the major events and factors that contributed.

    I just about made it fit into the box (writing small).:D

    Don't worry. Some people write a few lines, while others a small book. As long as you are making yourself understood that is the main thing.

    Keep it simple and to the point.

    Dont give more info than the minimum you need to provide.

    The OR's might pick up on something that you never thought of.

    Im only saying this becasue thats what happened to me when i had my OR interview over the phone. I gave more info than required and they picked me up on it and wanted evidence. Luckily i wasnt lying:p and gave them the info they needed.

    It it was a right hassle getting the proof on something that they really didnt need to know.
