It will depend on how much you have spare after your living expenses as to how much you will pay into your BR from what I understand. They will do your budget and take a percentage of your surplus (your income minus your outgoings) to pay into your bankruptcy.
From what I can gather, they are quite generous with your expenses.BSC member 131 :j Now bring me that horizon...

Hi,
You have 21 days to inform your OR. They will then send you a IPOQ form where you list you income and outgoings. Past this on here first and people will advise you.
If there is a surplus between your income and outgoings, the OR will look to put an Income Payments Agreement in place for a period of 36 months. There has to be a surplus of £100 a month first, and then they only take a percentage.
Hope this helps.0 -
Thankyou very much very helpful i will post back with more info when i have contacted them.0
