dad has moved out

If you are no longer residing in the same household then your trustee will likely prepare a separate income calculation for each of you. Mom and the kids will be subject to one threshold (allowable income limit) and dad will betreated as a single person. It will be important to inform your trustee of the change so that they can handle your situation properly.
