My solicitor said that I should put down all my living expense on part of Form E. I understand mortgage, utilities, life insurance, food, car running etc, but what else should I put down? Should I put down:
holidays, haircuts, clothing/shoes (me and DD), tv licence, Sky tv (basic), entertainment for DD (ie trips out, swimming, local fetes etc), lottery, nights out for myself (few and far between!),
also am I supposed to put a monthly figure or an annual figure? Ie car insurance paid once a year, so should I divide it by 12, or times monthly expenses by 12 to give annual total?
My solicitor said that my expenses shouldnt wildly exceed my income as I dont have any debts, but if I put down everything then the expenses will go over the income, especially as the income shown on the form doesnt include the maintenance from STBXH.
Thanks in advance for any help and replies
