Legal Question in Bankruptcy in California

My husband is planning on filing a Chapter 7 for debts that are his name only. After doing the Means Test where I have to also put in my income, it appears that he is above the state average. However, it does not appear to be a place to include my debts (that are in my name only...we have not been married very long and do not have marital debt except the house). Also I am paid an auto allowance and phone allowance from my job and even though that does not cover what I spend each month, it appears that is also included in my income. Something does not seem right here.....what am I missing?

At the bottom of the means test is a place for other, where that can be included with an explanation.
