If I wrote that right...sorry, still learning.
When I do the means test at legal consumer (don't need to...under median, but did it anyway), I have a negative DMI of 822. When I do a schedule J, I come up with a positive DMI of 44. The big difference is the food/clothing/rec category. We're allowed $1895, but I'm coming up with 1152 on my schedule J.
My concern is them letting us reaffirm our auto. Do they only look at schedule J for that, and not the means test? Because if you look at the means test we can't afford to keep it!
My other concern is what is allowed on that schedule J. Cell phone? Satellite? 401k contributions? student loan? If they aren't allowed in my area, I can just increase the areas I'm under in since this is current and forward looking, right?
TIA
