      Re: ~ Look here first - Bankruptcy Help ~

      These are guidelines for the OR of what is acceptable on our SOA's and not really for us. Please don't put exactly the same figures as the OR will smell and rat and go through your SOA, with a fine tooth comb. If your expenses are higher than the figures below and as long as you have all receipts these may then be accepted.

        [QUOTE=If...;98894]Please don’t put exactly the same figures as the OR will smell and rat and go through your SOA, with a fine tooth comb. [/QUOTE]

        [I][COLOR=DarkGreen][B]If[/B][/COLOR][/I] is [U]really[/U] not kidding on that.

        People have done that in the past on other forums, and the OR staff gone to town on the people who tried inflate their figures up to those levels when they were not justified by actual expenditure.

        Not only going through their SOA with a fine tooth comb and demanding proof for everything, but doing the same for all/most of the info in their BR case. Very unpleasant for the people it happened to.
