me and my husband are filing for bankruptcy but our debts are in seperate names.It may be a daft question but how does it work with the court and the OR as we have to file seperately but our expenses etc are joint.My husband has more debt than me so what do i put on the forms as the debts on mine are different to his?? should i put a note on the form of this.

you file your papers separately
see the judge separately (sometimes not)
list on the forms you're own debts and any joint ones
list on the forms total household income and expenditure and your contribution to it.

I have just completed our forms ready for BR, I put exactly the same on my husbands form as mine, even the car, it is in my name but he is named driver so put it on both
Good luck

do you both work? if you do it doesn't matter whose forms the car goes on. if only one of you work then put the car as an asset on that form and on the other form tick the box that says do you have the use of a car not belonging to you.
how much is the car worth? if over £2000 the OR will want to take it.

Hi ddonna

on the bankruptcy form their is a section to put cars you have access too but do not own. I agree with Chester in relation to the car and current work arrangements

If you have entered the car, then you can claim some of the running costs in your income and expenditure.

your plans for the future will dictate the best way to complete the I & E.

never straight forward and always best to take advice if it gets too complex!

regards Richard
