I’ve just filled in all my creditors from my credit report. I have outstanding invoices that never went to court do I include them?

Hi, I guess it would depend what the invoices are for.
There's a lot of information in the following government link -
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/getting-a-debt-relief-order/getting-a-debt-relief-order
In that link it advises that you have to submit a DRO through an approved intermediary and it also gives you a list of them. I'd really recommend StepChange, because they helped me with my DRO.
Why don't you contact one of the free debt help agencies anyway? They'll talk you through exactly what you can and cannot include. And they will be non-judgemental and very helpful.
The ones often recommended on here are National Debtline, StepChange and Citizens Advice and the details of each are on that list.
Their services are free so you may as well take advantage.

Generally, yes. If your local garage, or vet or Funeral Director (I'm thinking of some recent cases I had) have invoiced you and you have not paid the invoice then this is a qualifying debt and MUST be listed.
If this is some sort of scam invoice for something that was never supplied then it's not a debt.0
