Under Sec. 707(b)(2)(A)(ii)(I) means test deductions + for food, clothing, and other items and for health care are + permitted to be taken in the amounts specified in the IRS National + Standards.

The IRS itself generally + determines the applicable number of persons or family size for + these purposes according to the number of dependents that the + debtor claims for federal income tax purposes. + In order for Forms 22A and 22C to reflect more accurately the + manner in which the specified National and Local Standards are + applied by the IRS, the references to "household" and "household + size" are deleted, and the substituted terms - "number of persons" + and "family size" - are defined in terms of exemptions on the + debtor's federal income tax return and other dependents. + Form 22A, line 8, Form 22B, line 7, and Form 22C, line 7, are + amended to add an instruction that only one joint filer should + report regular payments by another person for household expenses. + Reporting of the figure by both spouses results in an erroneous + double-counting of this source of income. + The introductory instruction to Part I of Form 22A is amended to + direct debtors in joint cases to file separate forms if only one of + the debtors is entitled to an exemption under Part I and the + debtors believe that the filing of separate forms is required by + Sec. 707(b)(2)(C) of the Code.
