If you are already over your budget then allocating money towards other areas of spending would be futile, where would the money come from?
Have you looked at your expenditure to see where you could cut back? It is important that you can find a stable budget and avoid being over extended during your bankruptcy.
Happy to help take a look at your SOA if you need any assistance.0 -
Hi Jojopa
In addition to the points made above by alltaken, it is worth pointing out that the Insolvency Service guidance does not recognise cigarettes or alcohol as allowable expenditure in any case, so even if you had listed such figures the Official Receiver (OR) would almost certainly have disregarded them.
If the OR needs any clarification on your household expenses, they can ask for it when you have your routine interview.
Good luck
Dennis
