    I would think any extra income would be paid to mom and dad to contribute to household bills? That way it disappears ....

    I would also think this is in writing in your rent agreement with mom and dad

    Thanks guys, I didn't think it was too excessive.

    What are the "normal" allowances for the following to be acceptable:

    -'Emergency' fund = £10
    -Holidays (not too bothered but if its allowed then I will mention it) = £25
    -Haircuts = £10-15
    -Dental

    Put Dental down as Medical and say £25 (dental, prescriptions and opticians)

    Just say to the OR that you think you under estimated some figures and ask to adjust them.
