My first thought was that your partner's income at £4000 is too perfect to be correct.

Next thought is it would be good to see what you're actually paying on your debts, monthly amount & APR.

And lots of things I would have expected a couple to have as expenses are missing.

Our finances are seperate and I don't know the full ins and outs of her finances. She owns multiple property and its rough figure. I read that as it's myself being bankrupt, her finances won't really come into it. Our rent is £2750 in total which she mostly pays. She also pays 367 a month for her car.

I've just had my DMP closed for failure to make payment for 3 months so not currently paying anything

Ah!  That accounts for my confusion.  Perhaps you could note on it that "partner pays in full" or the percentage and eliminate their income as well if finances are separate.  And am I right in thinking that you alone pay the full council tax and electricity for your shared home??

No car but expenses for one 
.

If your partner and you keep separate finances should you have her income on there at all?

enthusiasticsaver

Also the electricity looks really high or do you have arrears? . 

I think that will read that you have £4k left to go towards debts so surely bankruptcy would not be approved on that soa?   All the soas I have seen for bankruptcy shows very little disposable income.

I pay alone for it but I basically said, I'll get the bills and you get the rent.

Have you spoke to one of the debt free charities?
I think that should be your start
