Legal Question in Family Law in California

Financial info required on Income &Expense Decl and Appl for Waiver

I have separated from my husband and my daughter and I now reside in a house with two roommates. Household expenses (rent, utilities) are shared equally. What is the proper way to complete these forms when expenses are shared? Does having this type of living arrangement affect child support and/or custody?
