some of your actual expenses if they are higher than the standards. Do not include any operating expenses that you
subtracted from income in lines 5 and 6 of Form 122C–1, and do not deduct any amounts that you subtracted from your
spouse’s income in line 13 of Form 122C–1.
If your expenses differ from month to month, enter the average expense.
