    This is based on 2 adults 1 child and 2 cars, this is our current situation but I've done another for when we move to rented and not paying any debts. Do the figures look ok?

    When we go br will the or require both? the above to prove we need to go bankrupt and then the one based on rented with no debts to work out any ipa? The above is what I'm sending out to ccs and loans to confirm i'm not making it up but i don't want them coming back and arguing although with a deficit of £600 its unlikely i can over quote that much.

    Any input appreciated :)

    have just done a quick soa post debts to see what sort of surplus cash we'd have. Comes out at £110 would the or bother with £11 or £5.50 a month to him?

    Some confusion here i think. I had £117 surplus and the OR took £50 a mth,thats the min they can take. D

    Thanks for that, so basically post br if i've got a few quid over the £99 they take a minimum of £50? Can an IPA only be imposed during the period you are undischarged ie surplus of say £80 while undischarged no ipa but it goes up to say £300 surplus AFTER discharge can the or come back for any?

    I only ask because during undischarged I will be on maternity leave but once this stops in december 09 i should be a qualified plumber and fingers crossed earning a little more.

    This is a grey area. I had letter when my IPA was first started which stated i had to inform the OR of any income changes up till discharge( these are old letters which were in use when bc was 3 years),others have had (new) letters which state they have to inform the OR of income changes for the 36 mths the IPA runs for.

    So take a look at the wording on your letter about the IPA and other court letters. Offically it should be 36mths but if you have proof it says until discharge then ;);) . Up to you really.D

    You need to give the OR your I&E as it is at the time of BR without the debts on it.so if you can post that one up it would be appreciated.

    This is a rough idea of my situation on going bankrupt back end of this year ie december while on maternity leave with another baby. I will be taking 12 months off in total so should be discharged before I start plumbing and my surplus increases.

    Do the figures stand with this, with it being under the £99 would the or try and adjust figures. Rent is an average is could be £50-£100 less or more, I won't know that for another couple of months.
