What path to take..?

The one outstanding question I have is with regard to calculating a genuine projection of my monthly income. The guy from StepChange said I should work of say the last few months and tie that in with a projection of the next few months.
What with having to have time off to sort my fathers past life, my income is looking like it'll drop & my expenses will rise. Does anyone have any information on taking all this into account when working out my monthly income? I just want to get a legitimate figure to work from... would the figure I arrive at be scrutinised & if so what would I need to show to support it?

I mentioned it earlier in the thread, but I think Business Debtline will be best positioned to advise you calculating your income.
