    Just one more question :o

    DF has all the incomings going to him, so everything goes out of his money (my debts and his)

    Do I put the household income on both sets of forms as I don't have any income :confused: and since DF deals with all the outgoings do I mention my debts on his budget or is it done totally individual :huh: (confusing)

    You've all been a great help thanks!

    As far as i'm aware your incoming and outgoings should be the same on both forms.


    Make sure you make the correct allowances for things you will be entitled to like holiday fund etc.

    I'm sure someone on here will give you advice on what you should/shouldn't put in your I & E.

    +Laura on DF form put the whole I&E, DF's debts and there is a space for who else contributes you put your income there.

    On your form put the whole I&E, your debts and in the space who else contributes you put your DF's contribution.

    If you need any one to look at your I&e WE WILL BE HAPPY TO, TO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE REMEMBERED EVERYTHING.oops caps sorry :o

    No by assets they mean house, car, priceless Da Vinci's etc

    Anything thats worth less than ( i think ) a grand then they won't be interested in.
