form 122A-1 - one family gifts (divide by 6 then x 12 ??)

[bornfree2]

Working on Form 122A-1 - statement of current monthly income

No income from job in last 6 months, yet received one or two family gifts during that period of $5000.

I suppose i report this on line 10 - 'income from other sources'.

So do i then divide that 5000 by 6 to get $833? ... and then multiply that by 12 for the annual income in line 12b? = $9996

Or do i multiple $5000 x 12 and get $60,000

Which would make no sense at all since i never got $60,000 or half of that. just $5000

I also ahve to add in some other things seen as income and it will push me over the state medium to a 'presumed' abuse. Yet.... thats not at all what reality was.

Im hoping its 'add up total income numbers and divide by 6 then multiple by 12' . otherwise.... eeekk

Do you have a guidebook? If not, I highly recommend getting one.

Income is calculated monthly. I have a fixed income, but still used a spreadsheet to list income for each of 6 months, and then used the SUM function to add them all up.

Example only...
July -- $5,000
August -- $0
September -- $0
October -- $5,000
November -- $5,000
December -- $5,000

6-month Total $20,000
Average Monthly $3,333.33
12-month projected $40,000

Also, I moved this to Pro Se section.
