I agree with Skippy.

Although your partner would become liable for the full amount of the joint debts, if he can afford to service the payments on those, then he would not have to declare BR as well.

The glimmer gets brighter all the time

Hi Rebecca, if your partner's carers' allowance is in his name you won't need to declare this as your income. I would recommend that he opens an account as yours will most likely be frozen by the bank when you are made BR.

If you have joint debts he won't be made BR unless he petitions himself, but he will then be liable for the full amount.

Rather than putting down the maximum allowances you need to put down what you actually spend. Put down everything you pay out, and if you want to post it on here the experts will be able to have a look at it.

Tomorrow is a mystery, yesterday is history, today is the present, a gift to make the most of.

Are any of your debts joint debts, if so I think he will be made bankrupt too and therefore his expenditure and income needs to be taken into account.
