Whilst allowances for expenditure in bankruptcy are far more reasonable and realistic than in an IVA, there are certain things that the OR may have an issue with here.
hair 50 clothing and footwar 100 birthdays christmas etc 60 contingency fund for emergencies 50 holidays 80
I would suggest you re-evaluate this expenditure. Bear in mind that you are allowed a disposable income before the OR wil look at an IPA/IPO, so this should more than cover your contingency fund at least.

Are you both going BR?
Are these expenses for all four adults?
