I have been divorced for less than a year. I have two children, aged 18 and 20. They are both attending post secondary education. My ex-husband has stopped paying me child support as of Sept 1, 2009 as the children will be away at school. He is paying for tuition and rent for one child and tuition for the other. Am I entitled to still receive support? A formal agreement was never drawn up.

If I have a signed pre-nup stating my husband owed me $50,000 borrowed against my home at the time of marriage, does that count against his debt at time of marriage if that home has been our marital home?

I’ve been separated for 3 months and was wondering if there is any way to claim my half of a car that my husband has owned for 5 years now. It was in both of our names, but he told me he has taken my name off the ownership since our separation. Can I force him to sell it so that I can get half of its value as it would be nice to be able to pay off some debt that I have, or can I prevent him from selling it without my consent? I have asked if he will sell the car and he refuses as he thinks it’s his car and I have no claim on it. We were married for 17 years prior to separation and have one child together. There is currently no separation agreement, but he is paying support. Thanking you for your time.

Can you tell me how much I will spend to get a divorce? I do understand there are a few steps, the second is $195 and the third $19.

I am divorced and pay child support from previous relationship and have done so for past 7 years, daughter currently 16. I am in a new relationship and have lived with this person for 15 months. She has two children, one lives with us and one doesn’t, these children are from her previous relationship. Everything is in her name, house etc. We have no insurance policies together etc. I give monies toward mortgage and groceries and pay some bills. If my relationship ended today, and I moved out, would I have to pay child or spousal support to her? Thank you.

I have a question about spousal support. I know it isn’t tabled like child support but is spousal support usually granted? I made $58000 last year and my ex-wife made $190000 last year. Is this enough of a difference to warrant spousal support? I was a part-time worker and a stay at home dad for family obligations for the last 3 years of my marriage. Also I paid 80% of the financial obligations even though I worked part time. If we go to court, what are my chances of winning a judgement? Thanks.

I need to get my fiancés divorce decree validated by a lawyer in Ontario so we can get married. He was married and divorced in Florida and currently lives in Trinidad. I can order a copy of the divorce decree on line and have it within a couple of weeks. I live in Ontario.

I am now self represented and I have a family law trial Nov 30, 2009 on all corollary issues. The base issues being custody and access. I am in need of a sample Trial Conference Brief Please as that is scheduled for Sept 17, 2009. I also need to know the process or what happens during a trial. My ex-wife took me to the cleaners and I am desperate to get reasonable and gracious access of my two young boys.

Can you get a divorce even if the person is not living in Toronto?

After 10 years of being separated with no contact is or would my ex be entitled to anything, there were no marital assets and when I left only took some clothes?

My wife left me after 22 years of marriage. She worked sporadically throughout our marriage but has not worked in a long time. I was laid off of my long term job last year and my e.i. benefits have run out and Social assistance will not help me since I went back to school to re-train. My ex (and or her lawyer) are continuously canceling scheduled court dates and dragging this out. I don’t want anymore cancellations. Can I contest the cancellations? What are my options to prevent this from happening?

My husband and I are considering a divorce after only 8 years of marriage. I left my home in SK to come to Ontario to be married. I would like to know my rights in ON. I have a pre-nupt, but I have acquired more savings (bank account) since I am in ON. I have a few questions:

Our home is in joint name, my husband put a down payment on this home while we were dating from his mother, the title was in both his mother’s name and his name. He and I continued to make payments while we were married, but he paid more than I did. When the house was fully paid for, we removed his mother’s name from the title and added mine. I pay all the household bills and taxes. Am I entitled to half of the house - or less as he purchased before the marriage?

We have separate bank accounts as well as joint accounts. I have been saving money in my personal bank account from my earnings at work and because of a pre-marriage sale of property, and pre-marriage investments that I have cashed out. Does he have claim to half of my bank accounts?

If I leave the marital home and return to SK - am I giving up my claim to the house?

My father recently split with his girlfriend, He was living with my grandmother for 2 weeks then committed suicide. He lived with a woman for 8 years then she called it off. Now she is taking over his will and possessions. Do my sister and I have a chance to break the will?

My wife cheat on me I told her to leave she left now I want to file a separation but she seem not up to it, can I start it without her? What is the maximum amount of money it should cost me?

I have joint divorce paper work to be filed but I am unable to make it to a court house. Am I able to mail the application in with a cheque?

I’m looking to divorce my spouse. He's American but we were married in Ontario Feb 27th 1999. I haven't seen or heard from him since 2005. He did go back to the USA however I have no idea where in the USA. Even his Dad and Step Mum have no idea where he is. How do I go about divorcing him? Thank You.

I need to file for divorce right away. All I need is to legally void my marriage. No custody battle or no spousal support. Just simply legal papers that him and I need to sign to void everything. How much would it be? How long would it take? What do I need to make it happen?

I have been divorced since Dec 2002. I have custody of our two children, 8 & 12. I am taking the children to Orlando on August X for family vacation. My ex-husband refused to sign a consent letter for me to travel outside of the country with the children because we had an argument on an unrelated matter, therefore he is not signing the letter. He advised the children that if we try to cross the border, he will call the US Customs and have me arrested. My question is that I have custody of the children since 2002, and this is our 4th trip to Orlando and in the past I was able to obtain a letter from the father however we were never asked to present the letter at the border, can the US Customs refuse my entry to the US and arrest me on the spot? Thank you.

Hi, my husband does not want divorce, we have two kids who I take care of most of time. We have a matrimonial home. He does not want to move out. In order for me to get divorced, I want to move out. Can I bring my kids with me? Do I need to get an order of temporary custody from the court? Thanks

My husband and I recently separated. Am I responsible for half of his credit card debt, even though the accounts are in his name only?

When a spouse is paying child support and they receive a raise from their employer, at what point does the recipient receive the increase of child support? Is child support based on the last years income tax and paid the following year from May to April of the next year?

If i leave my husband and my home do I lose my rights to the house after I am gone?

I was served with divorce papers. My spouse is only asking for a divorce. We do not have any children. We have already divided our shared assets. If I agree with the divorce claim do I still need to Answer the claim? Thank you

I have been married for 43yrs my husband has been having an affair for the past 3years. I now feel ready to separate I received an inheritance some years ago from my mothers house sale I have the money invested in my name. Would I have to share this in the settlement?

Jeremy!! I want to thank you for answering my questions that I have asked you. I have one more thing I would like to explain to you and ask your advice. My main concern is my 2 boys, I don't care about the house or anything else that is a material thing. The lawyer that I have now is telling me that the judge's in this area don't agree with shared custody or one week with Mom and then the next week with Dad. If the courts and lawyer don't allow me to have shared custody of my boys for no real good reason could I ask you to review my case and make sure my rights as a father where not violated, and I wasn't denied shared custody for some other unknown reason that can't be explained. I believe my children deserve to live in a shared custody situation. They would both still go to the same schools and have the same friends and routines would not change other than having 2 places to call home.

If you pay a lawyer for a uncontested divorce and you hand deliver the divorce papers and the spouse does not sign the divorce papers...does the divorce automatically become a contested divorce?

We are still living together, and have a 5 year old son, can all assets, support and custody be established in a divorce? Is there a waiting period after a legal separation before filing for divorce?

My common law wife is pregnant with another man's child, we have decided to separate, we both own our home, the debt is larger than what the house is worth. We are both in the red in all our accounts. She wants to stay in the house with our 2 boys and put the house in her name. I'm ok with the house issue but I'm not ok with the boys staying with her full time. I want to do a shared custody with her, where they live with me for a week and than her. She said that will never happen because she needs the child support to pay the mortgage. I'm willing to leave the house and start with nothing. Now because of the cost of starting with nothing will the courts give me a lead way to allow myself to get settled and get the things I need to survive and to have a place for my boys to come. She wants me out now and she wants full support right away and I can't afford to do that at first. She has said that's how it works and that's the way its gonna be. Is that true or do I have rights to get established and then pay what ever I have to pay when it goes to court.

Can I rent part of my home to the man I am seeing without putting at risk my alimony? And how long in Ontario is it considered common-law?

We Lived together common law, have 2 boys, both are names are on the mortgage, she met somebody else and wants to move on. I won't leave the house, I figure she wants to move on, so she should. Can she have me removed from the house when I've done nothing wrong and she's the one that wanted to move on. I want to stay with the kids or I want the kids to stay with me.

I got married in Toronto on XX 2008. I have not contacted my husband since Dec of 2008. We are not on speaking terms. I just want to find out if he has filed for the divorce and if not how can I. Cause I don't live in Toronto. I live in Dubai.

Hi! Question: I have been separated for a year and have filed for divorce, after the papers were served one must wait for 30 days I think where within the 30 days the other party can respond. Well being separated for a year going for an uncontested divorce does he have any claim to anything as far as jewelery or clothes etc that were given at the time of marriage? So, does he have any claim to anything being that the divorce is uncontested?

My Ex applied for a simple divorce in Toronto (Sept 2006). I'm living in Vancouver with my child. Can you refer me to a lawyer that has a BC and Ontario license?

I have been living apart from my spouse for the past 10yrs. I don't know where he is. Myself, nor the children have not seen him. I want to have a legal separation. What do I do? My son is 14yrs old and my daughter is 16rs old. What happens in this situation?

I am undergoing a separation agreement (common-law) and have paid my current lawyer $5k.. I have not been advised of services included but has gone back and forth with the other party since Jan 2009...what should I do? Can I get a family lawyer expert and get at least $4k back?

I am Muslim. I am married before two years and have one daughter of 9 months and my wife have recently become pregnant for 2nd child. Unfortunately, a conflict has arisen among us as a result we want to separate now. What is favorable situation for me (Husband) to give divorce to my wife? When and how, it will be better for me?

After 11 years of separation my husbands ex is taking him to court because he is refusing to pay $3000 towards a school trip their daughter wants to go on. He was recently laid off from work for 4 months, I just came off maternity and have been permanently laid off from my job. My husbands mother recently passed and had to incur the expenses of her funeral. All this was very unexpected. We had recently moved into a bigger home because we now have 3 children of our own and we are now struggling financially. There is no way we can afford it. In their agreement-it states that copies of his income tax is to be provided-after 2 years he never bothered and she never asked. Never asked for additional $ and never asked to pay for any extra curricular activities. Now she is taking him to court. Do we need a lawyer for this-she is taking him to court because he has not provided income tax copies? Comment first, I would have loved this workshop seven years ago. I need to find an expert in family law, my question is what is the time limitation to sue your lawyer after you find out there has been duty, breach and damages of your final court order, discovery has been recent? There is no help out there.

I need a lawyer refer with Ontario and B.C. license who is able to communicate in Cantonese. I'm currently living in Vancouver with my child. My EX applied simple divorce in Toronto.

I just need to know me and my wife are getting a separation agreement together. My wife owned a house that was worth $130000 when I met her. She still owed $750000. I owed a condo which I sold and put $45000 in reno of the house. I don't think all this matters is it all true that where there was no agreement of anything different that we both own equal shares in the house. The House is worth now $240000 so do I own $120000 of it. Thanks

I've been separated from my husband for 5 years, he has my 2 children, I have visiting rights. I'm on O.D.S.P. and don't think I qualify for legal aid to get a divorce, and so I'm going to get a loan to pay for a basic divorce myself. My question is, if I remarry, can my ex-husband come after me and my spouse for child support? The judge had previously denied him support as my income is too low, and my boyfriend has a good paying job.

I am in the early process of a separation and have two daughters. My wife has asked me to leave the home we both own. We do not have any agreement yet and she is away for 6 weeks with my daughters. I have looked but do not feel I should move out without protecting myself. As well my daughters do not want me to leave. This is not an abusive relationship, this was sprung on me two days before she went away. I am the sole income earner and renting a place would put us in financial ruin.I have on process divorce, the lawyer's associate have been working on my file, i didn't get much of help after paying $4,000.00 and on top of that she quit on my file. What can I do, i wasted $4,000.00 and i only got $315.02 a month for 2 month for child support, i was alone for 6 months with 4 children without any help financially from my ex-husband. I'm now separated for 9 months. What can I do to the lawyer who quit after working on my file and paid $4,000.00? Thank you.

To whom it may concern. Do I have to fill the separation contract kit in order to follow with the divorce procedure within the year? We have neither mortgage or children. All We have is a join credit card which the other party is the primary card holder and a car loan which the other party has full use of the car? Now Am I as responsible as she is for the amount owed in the 3 years remaining of the car loan even though I don't use the car at all? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank-you.

I am Canadian and was married to an American in 2004 in Key West, Fl. We have been separated, him living in South Carolina and myself living in Ontario since 2006. He has file for divorce in SC and his lawyer is asking for my social insurance number. Is this something I should be giving out? This is a straight forward divorce, either party asking for anything. I was also told to sign and return the documents by fed ex when I receive them. Isn't it automatically filed if I do not respond as I am not contesting anything?

Separated, X has 14 year old child now I have to pay support. He has been with his Dad for almost 3 mos. X is putting pressure on for money. I have determined the amount I have to pay per the Federal Schedule, If I send him a payment according to the charts can this amount be changed later after I see a lawyer?

Hi, my question is regarding child support. my daughter who lived with her father has moved out and away to live in Toronto with her sister while she attends George Brown. At that time she was also given $7000 for tuition and living expenses while she lives with her sister. My question is.....her father thinks he is entitled to receive full child support while she is living in Toronto with her sister. Is he entitled?

Husband and I agreed on the custody of child, amount of child and spousal support and assets. We would like to make a separation agreement by using the self-do-it kit. I would like to know that what is advantage to get a lawyer to draft our agreement over the self-kit and what would happen if my husband stop paying the child support if we use the self-kit?

Will the husband be responsible for the ex-wife's well-being (financially, physically) until she gets married again after the the divorce is finalized?

How do I serve divorce papers on my husband who lives in Jamaica? he has never lived here.

Is it possible to get an equalization of finances if I have been separated for 7 years and have just been served with divorce papers. I was living off my inheritance and that is now depleted. Also I paid 10s of thousand of dollars during the separation in 2005 am I able to recoup that money in a civil suit. The money was paid out during the sale of a joint property and there was a lien that had to been removed prior to the close of the house.

I am representing myself in my divorce. I have filed the application and the respondent has a lawyer and they answered. I didn't know about the time frame in responding to his answer therefore I was required to file a case conference. It went before the judge June, 2009. The judge ordered the divorce. I went to the court house today to find out how to obtain the divorce now and the court clerk told me I was to wait until the respondent's lawyer filed his portion. They wouldn't explain to me what this means. They did give me a photocopy of the order. In my opinion that sounds like his lawyer can still hold it up until he files whatever paperwork is required to be filed. I have already agreed to pay the remaining portion of the fee as I filed it to begin with and paid the initial portion. My question: Do I actually have to wait until his lawyer files whatever the court clerk was referring to or can I proceed somehow without it?

I am going through a complicated divorce. My husband and I are separated and he has filed a motion to get me out of the matrimonial home. We were married for 5 years and have 2 children ages 5 and 3. The oldest is starting school this year, but I have not yet enrolled her. The complication is that he has a marriage contract which entitles him to 85% of the value of the home (which is paid off). What should I do to try and fight to stay in the home? I previously did not work during the marriage and therefore I do not have a steady income. What are the chances that I will get to reside in the home indefinitely based on the fact that I am sole custodian of the children and I have not worked during my marriage that lasted 6 years? My husband is living with his parents and paying rent to them. He wants to sell the home so that he can take out his equity (There is no mortgage on the home)I obviously cannot afford to buy him out. We have already split up our other marital assets with the exception of the home, and although I am also going to fight for spousal support, I do not want to leave the home. What is your thoughts on the outcome of this case?

How do I find out if I am divorced?

Hello, do prenuptial agreements made 20 years ago in Quebec, still stand?

The term "adultery" used to get a divorce right away instead of waiting the one year period...within what boundaries of adultery being committed would be considered for getting a divorce right away. I.e. if you separated and then adultery was committed, does that qualify?

My boyfriend moved to Ontario from Alberta over a year ago. He has been legally separated from his wife who lives in Alberta for almost four years. He has an adopted son with her which he already pays monthly child support payments. They have no assets to divide. Despite all of this she has refused in the past to grant him a divorce. How can he go about trying to divorce her again?

My husband and I have been living separately in the same house for 9 years. (for the children sake and my husbands poor health) My husband's health has vastly improved. So now I would like a legal separation. 2 questions: 1. How do we divide my hospital pension? 2. I would like to buy real estate as an investment. Do we need a legal separation before I can do so without having to divide it?

Hi, I hope someone who can point me in the right direction. Here is my situation. My wife and I moved to Vancouver last year in July and I decided to separate/divorce and have moved back to Toronto in June 2009. She will remain in Vancouver. We have no kids and rent - assets are fairly liquid. Do I need a lawyer in BC or Ontario?

Hi I am legally separated for almost a year my son is with my wife because I had no where to live I pay child support and have joint custody but would like to have split custody, what should I do to proceed with handling my divorce? Thank you very much.

My spouse and I are trying to obtain a divorce as quickly as possible so that we can get on with our lives and possibly date for part of the summer. We were able to put our own Separation Agreement together and agree on the terms. I got a lawyer to serve my spouse with the application for divorce. Now that she's been served, she's wondering if she is required to file an Answer;, especially since she agrees to everything in the separation agreement. Would it speed up our divorce or would it prolong it? Is there any way to waive the 30 day waiting period for her to file an Answer?

Separated June 2005. Told him his infidelity, he should pay to get divorce. Got form 8A(in maiden name) from his lawyer. did not respond. I'm being served docs in my maiden name, should I accept. He pays no spousal support, but I want to keep my medical benefits. If I accept docs in maiden name, will i have problems as this divorce proceed, because technically my married surname is my legal name. Thank you.

I have prepared a letter to the lawyer and wondered if this has to be presented by a lawyer to validate my response? What would the cost be to send the letter? Thanks.

My ex-spouse owes over 6 years in child support payments. There was never a court order started as she was in prison and moved to another province. She also owes for her two other daughters who are now 18 and 20 and did not pay support of for 6 years from another marriage. My question: she is now seeking my military pension should I seek the back payment if possible for my two girls or leave this matter as status Quo.

I would like to know what my options are if my husband doesn't agree to a separation and is saying that he can claim abandonment or desertion. I have 2 boys ages 4 and 9. Plus I've worked hard all our relationship and don't feel I should have to walk away from everything just because I don't wish to stay unhappily married.

I am off to court over child support for my 20 year old son. I have had custody of my two sons since 1991 with little or no support from my ex for many years. My son is attending a college in the city his mom resides in. She is now asking for max child support for my son. He does not reside with her at this time but is being convinced to move in with her this summer. His principal residence is still with me. She has a higher income than I do and is living common law. I have a new wife and three children to support. My son is working to help with his own education and daily needs. What will the judge see fitting in this case?

In an order, I have to provide my ex-spouse with my income tax return and Notice of Assessment each year. Can I just give it to him at an upcoming default hearing or do I have to serve it on him with an affidavit of service? And would it be better to serve him with a Form 13A? I have been divorced for about 15 years. I have paid child support for my two children to the age of 18, in accordance to a on consent court order. Now my one child is 19, and wanting to attend collage, which is great, and I have agreed help pay for her schooling, but at this point she needs to apply for OSAP, because of my financial position. My current wife is unemployed, due to health reasons, and I myself have had a triple bypass, am a diabetic, long with other medical costs. My ex- wife has threatened to take me to court unless I pay for my daughters education. My question is this, now that my daughter is 19 years old, an adult, can the law force me to take out a loan, to keep supporting my adult children. Also, now that she is 19, would it not have to be my child that would take me to court? an not involve my EX?

Hi there, I am currently trying to negotiate a legal separation agreement with my wife. I live in Ontario. I was in a 14 year marriage, and I (the husband) owned the home at time of the marriage. My wife has no assets. We sold my home after 5 years, and my wife's name is on selling document. Her name is also on the purchase agreement for the new property, although she did not contribute financially to the purchase. I would like to retain ownership of the property (house). What do you think I would be required to pay my wife on separation?

My wife and I have been living separated in the same house since the end of march. I want to sell the house but she refuses to. How can I make her sign the papers asap?

Hi, I have been separated for almost 2 years now, I am on social assistance and do not have much money. I would like to apply for a divorce I have been looking online at some services around Toronto, like Toronto Divorce Services, their fee aren't too expensive, but I would like to know if places like that are trustworthy, and if they actually have divorces through their services. Also, is there anyway that I could apply myself through the courts for a divorce, or do I have to go through a lawyer or one of these agencies?

Hello, I am in the process of getting a divorce. I have 3 kids and the soon to be ex stays home and looks after the kids. She is now looking for a job. We live in Whitby but she is looking for jobs further away, Belleville/Trenton area. My job is based out of Oshawa. If she gets a job and moves to Belleville with the kids I believe it will hurt my relationship with my kids (8 years old and under) because when the are settled in a new town I will be taking them away when the visit me. I won't be able to go to their activities and if they visit me in my town I will be pulling them away from their life in the new town. I feel they will grow to resent me for that. Can something be documented in a divorce agreement that she can't take the kids an unreasonable distance away from me? I am willing to move a commute to work somewhat but it sounds like she is not willing to even do that. Hope that makes sense. I need to know if something can be documented in the divorce agreement to make sure she stays within a reasonable distance of where I live. Thank.

Hello, My question would be, my spouse currently sees his child once per week supervised by his relative. He is not responding to any letters to mediate the issues. He takes no responsibility for his child, just leaves with grandparents, very unstable for the 1 day he has her. It has been 1 year and half since separation. I want to go ahead to court for sole custody and divorce but what would be my chances for Sole Custody?

 

Hi, I have been separated since 2000, but legally separated since Oct 2004. I have tried twice to get a divorce and both time my x put a monkey wrench into it. Thus it only ended costing me money for nothing. Now after 2 yrs, I receive a letter from my x's lawyer stating that my x wants an uncontested divorce, and wishes that I proceed with one of the previous divorce applications that I started. Or do the necessary paper work so they can proceed. The letter was addressed in my maiden name. I did not respond to the letter, because I have wasted enough money trying to get a divorce and now if he wants one he can pay for it. Just yesterday, I received yet another letter from his lawyer, addressed again in my maiden name asking for a responds to his correspondence. Am I obligated to respond to this letter?

My wife and I have made up a separation agreement which we have both signed and was witnessed by my mother. Is this document legal? We both agree and we have no further issues to resolve. My wife has a Lawyer hired through legal aid who keeps telling her we have to go to court any way is this true. It seems like a waste of our time, the courts and money.

My separation agreement indicates that my ex husband has to pay child support until my children are finished their post secondary education and no age is specified. My son is in college and just turned 21. My ex husband says that there is a new law stating that he does not have to pay support anymore regardless of our agreement. Wouldn't there have to be a legal change to our agreement. Can you please advise if he can do this and what my options are at this point. Thank you.

When dividing spousal and personal RRSPs and the bulk of these are in the higher wage earners name, how are they treated form taxation purposes?

I am a Canadian Citizen. I married in 1998 a man who is Pakistan in England. After so many years, I do not know where he lives now nor have I tried because I worry for my well being and safety. I am filing for divorce. My current lawyer says she cannot say how much it will cost to get the divorce. I know they have to serve him papers in person but if he does not live there now...can they just place ads in England papers for x number of weeks to find/notify him? I am worried sick that my lawyer is going to waste my money on doing too many steps etc.

What can you do if you file the initial divorce papers indicating you are separated for 9 years and the custom of the children has been assigned to the mother but you are unable to locate a copy of the original separation documents... and there is not a filed copy in the courts? How can you proceed with the second part of the divorce filing forms 6b, 8a, 25a, 36...? What can be done at this stage? July 28, 2009 will be 1 year since the initial papers were filed???

For back support from 2000-2008 what tables do I use? Thanks

Hello, I have been separated for 2 years and was told that there is a loop hope after 1 year. Both myself and ex-wife have signed papers (the first set I believe) and there is no contest. Is there such a loop hole and if not how long will the process take if we handle ourselves? Thank you for your time.

Mother tossed the child out of her home, basically onto the streets, for at least 6-7 months. Separation Agreement dated, 22 day of July, 1999, states that: ;Support for the child shall cease when the child: (i) withdraws from parental control; (ii) marries; (iii) becomes 18 years of age and the child is not longer attending a regular institution of learning; (iv) moves away from the home of the wife; (v) becomes self-supporting; or (vi) dies Upon any one or more of these events happening, the obligation of the Husband to pay maintenance to the Wife for the child shall cease forever.; Why did we have to re-install our child support payments when the mother finally took the child back after much begging on the child's part? Thank you. P.S., We spoke to original Divorce Lawyer and he basically advised that this was the way it was, we have to continue paying no matter what, if the child moves back in. This goes against the agreement as far I see it.

What can be done once divorce papers were filed, listing children that was already awarded custody and support payment in a separation agreement and no copy of the separation agreement can be found (separated 2000);the party filing for the divorce does not have a copy of the separation agreement and it's not in the courts (requested copy from the courts and it was reported no copy on file)and the other party will not supply the only copy that can be found. The Lawyer that was use by the part filing for the divorce has relocated - address unknown. Is there a way to get around this or get another copy of the separation agreement from family enforcement(one who enforce the support agreement). Please advise... looking to remarry and this is hindering the divorce process.

14 years ago my mother and father divorced. In the agreement, he agreed to continual spousal support (she had been a stay-at-home mother for the 22 years of their marriage) and it was ongoing at the time of death. It says in the separation agreement that he agrees to keep a policy of $250k in effect, separately, to care for this obligation if he dies. He has now passed, and we have found out that he did not keep the above insurance policy in effect. Further, he never made his equalization payment of $20k. Does my mother have the right to now get credit to his pension (he made new wife beneficiary - and my mother only released her interest knowing that he had to keep the life insurance in place)?...Also does she have right to any remaining assets in the estate to take care of these obligations?

We both agreed to file a divorce. We've been separated since October, 2006. We have a 16 year old daughter and no property. I am currently in Doha, Qatar for 6 months work assignment. I just wanted to know if I could request special consideration to apply for divorce application even though I am here in Doha. We got married in Manila and both permanent resident in Canada. I am eager to expedite the divorce process while my ex husband willing to cooperate. I do not want to loose this chances. I am willing to shoulder all courier expenses. If not possible how about if my daughter will pick up the divorce application to bring here. I could provide notarized identification if required. I look forward to hear from your end. Thanks.

My X-wife felt she needed $12,000.worth of cosmetic surgery after having a short ;relationship; with her boss. I was unaware at the time of the ;relationship;. She got implants, nipple reduction,tummy tuck etc. We nursed her back to good health and a year later she had an affair with another person and left the marriage, she said she planned to leave for several years but said nothing until she left. Q- Since she took the ;assets; with her should she not be required to reimburse me for the family money spent on the ;goods; is there case law to support this?

I have a question about custody. I have a separation agreement in place with my husband giving me sole custody of the kids. Another clause in my agreement states that I may live anywhere in or out of the country of Canada with the kids without his knowledge and/or consent. The access clause states that my husband has access to the children at a fair & reasonable time, convenient to myself (while we're residing in Canada). If I move out of the country (like to the USA), does that mean I can leave without telling my husband since I don't need his knowledge and consent. I'm not restricting his access (because the clause states while we reside in Canada). While we reside in Canada, I've never denied him any access and I won't. I'm concerned about this. Thanks.

My Common Law Husband and I are splitting after 12 years together and we are getting the house appraised then splitting the difference. Over the years in our home his family have helped us out for renovations and down payment saying it will be coming out of his inheritance. My question to you is am i legally obligated to pay half this money back?

When I got married 2 years ago, my fiance convinced me to sell my house in Kitchener because he told me that we would have 2 others houses; the matrimonial home and his home in Ottawa which he owned himself and was a rental property. He did not at any time say to me that this house would be excluded from in the event of a divorce. Now of course after he told me he wanted a separation and divorce, he was quick to point out to me that I am only entitled to the increase of any value of that rental property during the 2 years we were married. Can a judge rule in my favor for that?

I recently had my divorce granted, there are 2 children involved, I am paying $1250/month child support based on a income of $90000, which I find incredible high. Daycare will be acquired soon and I will be responsible for 66% of the cost, I figure another $800/month. She currently is common-law/engaged and will remarry late this year.Do I have any ability to reduce my portion of child support and daycare based on the fiance's income which is also about $90000/year. Unfortunately I found your service after everything was done.

I have a final order giving me (the applicant) sole custody of my child and visitation to his father as agreed upon by me. I am wanting to reduce visitation to every other weekend and no weekday visits. I am just wanting to make sure I am able to do this seeing as I have sole custody and visitation agreed upon by me.

I am married to a man that was deported, and we were only married for 7 months before he got deported, and I am still married to him he was deported in June 2008, was wondering what kind, or how do I divorce him?

I have separated from my husband, who is not the Father of my children. I came home last Thursday to find that he had packed half of the household contents and had moved out without my knowledge. He is now pressing me to sign a Separation agreement. I don't know what my rights are - he makes $160K per year, and I make $87K. He was responsible for paying the mortgage, and I paid for all other household expenses. Am I entitled to any kind of spousal or child support? Can I ask for him to continue to pay the mortgage?

My wife and I are separating we have been married for 8 years and have two children 4 and 2. My Net yearly income is 51,108.37 after subtracting income tax ,cpp, and e.i She stopped working part time evenings about nine months ago. She is looking for child support 1024.00/month which is not the problem. The problem I have is she is also looking for 1580.00/ month in spousal support. She is employable and has a college degree. She was working previously in the evenings, and it was not affecting the upbringing of our children. As I looked after them evenings. Is she legally entitled to 2,604.00 /month leaving me with 1,654.00 / month. She has no intention of finding work.

Where do I go to get documents for an irreconcilable difference divorce and where do I submit the documents once completed?

How can I make my wife sell our home?

My husband and I have been married for almost 6 yrs and have a 3 yr old son and I have a 16 yr old from a previous marriage. My husband and I purchased a house 2 yrs ago and moved into the house Feb 2008. When the home was initially purchased it was purchased in my name and my husbands fathers name because my husbands credit wasn't good. When it came time to do the mortgage (my husband is a mortgage broker) he pulled my credit bureau and said I had a low beacon score and would not be able to qualify for a mortgage. As a result my name was removed from the home and just my husband's father remained on the title for the house. My husband and I are now separating and fighting about the house. I want to know what my rights are in terms of the ownership of the house. I invested money in the original purchase and have been paying all utilities since moving into the house. What are my rights in terms of this home?

 

 

Hi, I have been separated now for 9 years. My ex and I still get along pretty well. We have nothing on paper. I still pay her money every month as we have a son together. Is there a time span that it's an automatic divorce?

I lost my job this past year and was given a separation allowance. In my divorce agreement I need to show my ex-wife my income tax to adjust my payments to follow the child support guidelines. I was able to secure a job without having to use any of my separation allowance as income. My question is, do I have to include the allowance amount towards my child support payments even though this elevated amount isn't a true representation of what my actual income is or will be in the coming year?

I filed a simple divorce here in Ontario and then it came to a point that the court clerk send me a letter saying that my application be put on an uncontested trial list just to consider my husband's filing who is back in our country(Philippines). How would I proceed in this matter?

I'm in the beginning stages of separation and not sure if I should be contacting a lawyer or mediator. I am self employed and my husband is employed with a pension, we have a home with a small mortgage, RRSPs and little debt, please advise what direction I should take?

My husband & I have (verbally) agreed to divorce/separate but we are still living together because I haven't been able to obtain legal advice, as yet, and I don't want to move until I know what rights I have. We do not own our home right now and I intend to move out as soon as I have a place to live. I am trying to decide between renting and buying a condo. My problem is this: I would like to buy a condo (apartment)but due to division of assets and the current market downfall (my RRSP is in stocks), I don't know if my financial position after division of assets will allow me to afford the condo. Secondly, my husband offered to support (i.e. cosign) my condo application but he also wants me to cosign an application for him to purchase a house -- My income is at least twice his -- I don't want any part of this but he says, it will just be a business agreement, regardless of the divorce. Please, please, please give me your honest opinion on this proposal.

I am seeking divorce and I am interested in utilizing your services for it. I have some questions/facts about my current status and would appreciate your feedback. 1. We have been separated for over a year, haven't been living as husband and wife but don't have a formal separation agreement. Is it required to have a separation agreement? 2. We have a child together, and custody and support issues are not a concern, we have a mutual understanding of providing financial support for our child. 3. We still reside at the matrimonial home we own since September 2008 and looking to have the property sold as soon as we are able to get a fair value for the property and then split the assets. Will this be okay? 4. By the sounds of it, it will be an uncontested divorce as we have already discussed and come to a mutual decision on a lot of issues that arise in a divorce outside of the court. How long of a process generally is it for the divorce to be finalized? Thank you for your time. We look forward to utilizing your services soon. If the parents get divorced do the children get to chose who they want to live with?

I am living in a common law relationship since September 2008. The man is not legally divorced. He has been legally separated for about 12 years. Can is ex-wife sue me for anything. She is always going to sue him for money, like undue hardship, etc. Can I be named in any legal action.

I'm in a process of divorcing my husband,and I'm the only one working paying our mortgage, what are my legal rights before I continue on this matter? I'm also intending to keep the house and him to moved out is this possible?

My divorce lawyer wanted my marriage certificate so I provided him with a long form which was what I got when i ordered it from the registrar office....he now says that's not what i need...he said that he needs a document from bay and bloor that looks like a certificate...does he know what he's talking about...because I called the registrar office and they told me i can use the long form...and I should be looking for a new lawyer since he doesn't know the difference?

My ex wife and I have been separated since 2003 and we were legally separated in 2006, all the settlements are done, my son now 18 has always lived with me so everything has been decided. We are both on board with finalizing the divorce. What forms do I have to fill out and file and where do we file them? Also how long should this process take?

Hello I recently am separated and I guess I have to prepare my for divorce. The main problem is that I have not seen my son for 3 months I miss him so much and my ex spouse is very vindictive and she is trying to take my son away from me which will never ever happen. Can you help me?

My 20 year-old son is planning to move out of town (from Ottawa to Montreal) to attend his second year of university. Until now he has resided with his mother and I have been paying the Table rate support rate for him and his 18 year old brother. We estimate that his expenses next year will be approx. $7,000 for tuition, and $1,000/month for all other living expenses. He will be sharing the rent for an apt. for 12 months, and tentatively plans to reside there all year, including summers. He will only return for short visits, ie weekends, where he has the option to either stay with me or his mother, or just as likely, with friends. I have proposed that the $7000 tuition cost be paid out of our RESP fund, and the $1,000 living cost be split 3 ways, with our son paying 1/3 and the remaining 2/3 be split between my wife and I according to our relative incomes (which are approx. equal). He has savings and works PT and summers. My wife agrees in principal, but argues that I should continue to pay her the difference between what I pay her now for him as the second child, ie $500/month ($1390 (for 2 children) - $890 (remaining one child rate))and the approx. $350/month, which would be my share of his new living cost. This difference is only $150/month, but he is not planning to live with his mother, and I am still paying almost $900 for the remaining 18 year old. BTW, when our Separation Agreement was signed, the older child in question lived on his own (she had kicked him out for a year) and he is not mentioned in that Agreement (ie, for Custody or Child Support issues). There is no Court Order to pay child support for either of the children - but I have been doing so. Do I have a (strong) case to claim that any support for him should be restricted to paying him, directly, only my share of his planned living expenses, for 12 months a year, and that no additional payments to my ex-wife are warranted? My wife and I are separating. We have a 16 year old boy who is coming to stay with me. My wife has consulted a lawyer and I have not do to money situation. We are trying to do this fair and a 50/50 split. She says I have to pay her alimony until she marries or dies. What is my legal obligation and for how long would I have to pay her. Does she have to pay me support for my son? Thank you for your time.

I have been separated for over 1 yr. My husband has filed for divorce. We have a separation agreement that was prepared by and witnessed by our accountant. Can I change the agreement at this point, is it legally binding? Can I stall the divorce proceedings if I do or do not contest the divorce?

I have been separated for a year and wish to file for a divorce. I am currently unemployed and have a property under my name only that is going through a foreclosure. My ex also has a property under his name that is going well. He also has a condo in downtown that was under his name but was transferred to his moms name a few years back. We lived there together and paid the mortgage and all the expenses. My question is am entitled to anything of the property that I paid the mortgage for three years even though it is under his mothers name, what about other assets he has that are out of the country? How does the foreclosure affect him? Thank you for helping me.

I have had a court order giving me sole custody of the kids. My husband moved out Feb 09 but we have really been not been married for almost two years. He had two affairs and refused to move out and leave me alone. He ended up getting arrested for assaulting and harassment on me. Can I just apply for a divorce without spending the money on a separation. I don't have the money and want this as cheap as possible. I want a divorce desperately.

Legally separated but no separation agreement. I was married for 16 months and we lived together for less than 5 years total. ( she claims more - I claim 45 months ). She had a house going into the marriage and so did I. She makes 110 - 120k per year and I make 140k. No kids. But we lived in my house - so I cannot claim it going in they say as it is the matrimonial home. Is there anyway that I can claim my house? It definitely does not seem fair that she gets half of my house or even 30-40% of it.

I have two sons at the age of 19 & 22. Currently I own a house with my husband but I would like to file for divorce. What are my rights and do I really need a lawyer or can I represent myself?

I am about to start with divorce proceedings and I need a response to this question immediately. My husband took me off his health insurance. We are still legally married and I have no health coverage at all. It was effective Feb. 2009. Since that date, I have been to a hospital for x-rays due to an injury and have been sick for the past month. Am I going to be responsible for all the medical bills or does he have to pay for it since he took me off and we are still legally married?

What happens when you make too much for legal aid, but still can't afford a lawyer for a divorce?

I have been separated for 16 months now and I'm looking to move forward for a divorce. Our separation was easy, we didn't use a lawyer since we make the same money and have no kids. My question is this. We're in Oshawa, do I need to go to file for divorce?

I have had a separation agreement with my wife signed in London Ontario in 2004. We have joint custody of 2 children, the children currently live with their mom in London, but I currently live and work in Taiwan. We agreed to provide child support based on our financial capabilities, as stated in the separation agreement. Other than child support, we don't need to support each other, or have any financial or property issues. NOW, I would like to file divorce and want to know how to start. My conditions and questions are below: Conditions: 1. I have separation agreement. Signed in London ON in 2004. We started separation in 2002. 2. My 2 children are now living with their mom in London, ON. 3. I don't live with kids. I work and live in Taiwan. 4. We have joint custody. Questions: 1. Will the separation agreement be deemed as divorce in court? How likely the divorce can be settled without costly and time-consuming law suit? 2. Can I hire a lawyer in Ontario to help me file the divorce without me being there in person? 3. My wife asks for full custody. Should I give up? why and why not? 4. The time frame of the filing divorce procedure.

I grossed 90,000 last year I'm self employed and wrote off 50,000, my wife is threatening to divorce and making sure she screws me good for child support for one child. I paid tax on 40,000,child support should be around 365 is that correct or will I get screwed and have to pay on 90,000?

If I do ask for orders I'd like the judge to make in the affidavit would it be at the beginning or end?

I need to fill out the Notice of Contempt Motion (Form 31) and the Affidavit (14A). I'm a little confused at to where I write down the orders I would like the judge to make. Can't seem to find answers anywhere, please help?

I have drafted a separation agreement and my husband and I are in total agreement. We both signed it, and had it witnessed. I have sole custody of both kids and he's agreed to a pre- determined child support amount. Do I need to register this with the courts in Ontario? I want to also register it with the FRO in Ontario.

Hi, I am a mature man, have been married and have grown children. I have been separated from my (ex)wife almost six years. Recently my girlfriend moved in with me. I want to understand how her moving in may impact me if we ever break up. I own a house (on my own, my ex has her own place as well), I pay the taxes, utilities and mortgage on my place. I am a real estate agent with little income now because of the soft market so am using savings/debt to pay living expenses in the expectation that things will pick up. My girlfriend has no assets and very little income, she is considering starting a small work from home (my home) business that is possible because I appear to be subsidizing her living expenses. We do plan a future together but in case things don't work out I want to know what if any steps I should take to protect my assets.

When entering a joint custody agreement in Ontario, do the children reside with one parent primarily or are they expected to live equally with both parents. Who would have the advantage if one parent works full time and the other parent has been the primary care giver since birth of all children involved?

My parents have been separated without a separation agreement for 20 years. Now my mom wants her divorce and is inquiring about the house. If I understand the law there is a six year limitation on property division and equity payment? Can you clarify this situation for me?

I recently moved to Scarborough and my ex (the mother of my daughter) lives in the High Park Area of Toronto. My normal visitation with her is standard: Every Wednesday and every other weekend. Since I live in Scarborough, but work at Bloor/Young, I generally get home by 6pm Wednesday from picking up her from the Baby sitters. Recently the Ex has decided to move to Mississauga. This will now make my Wednesday visits with her not feasible as our time will be spent mostly sitting in traffic and she would have to be up at 5am to get her to school on time Thursday morning. Question: Could I have stopped her from moving away that far and could I request for lowered child support to accommodate higher traveling costs?

My husband and I want to get an uncontested divorce, we both agree. There are no minor children and my husband and I have had no conjugal relationship for more than 10 years. We have shared the same house due to lack of financial resources. I have not been able to afford to live on my own. I do not want anything from my husband, however I do wish to marry another man as soon as possible. I do not want to wait one year, as I said, we have had no relationship other than as occupants in the same house for many years. We are both residents of Ontario. Can we divorce quickly and how soon can I remarry? Thank you.

I attended court on November 08 and received a court order that the other party shall forthwith pay me partial indemnity costs fixed at $2,500 inclusive of fee, disbursement and gst. To this date I have not received any of this money. My question is how to go about getting this order enforced so that I can receive the $2,500. The court we attended was in Barrie but I currently live in Toronto. The other party still lives in Barrie. I cannot afford a lawyer to try and get this money paid to me so I am looking for the least time consuming avenue (and least expensive avenue) in order to get the money ordered to me. Please advise, much appreciated.

I was the defendant in a grueling arbitration for which I was self-represented and saw a terrible result, including a huge cost award which I have to pay and will result in my personal bankruptcy. My question is: Can I have the arbitrator removed from future reviews as he will now be a creditor in my bankruptcy proceeding and I feel this would prejudice him?

I have been separated for 3 years. Want to finalize the divorce. Is he entitled to half of the content of the house, furniture etc. I insisted he leave. Was told that if they leave they are not entitled. Only half of the equity once the house is sold. Can not sell, too affordable, I have teenage girls.

Is there a type of Divorce where the husband doesn't get anything because of emotional/physical/mental abuse to whole family?

Hi, My partner and his wife separated in May 2000. No separation agreement was done at that time. Once I came into the picture, 6 years ago, my partner initiated a separation agreement. It's been going on every since. Every time all the issues appear to be agreed upon and my partner's lawyer sends it to her lawyer for signature, the other side decides on something else that should be added. So back and forth it goes and very slowly I may add....months go by. My partner is an extremely gentle, fair man who works 60+ hours a week. In the agreement she got the cottage worth $300,000, $400,000 for 1/2 the matrimonial home and $5,000 per month and still she won't sign. Now she wants the alimony to continue after he retires at 65 (he is 61 now). She's a teacher's assistant who works 30 hrs/wk and get's all school holidays off yet the law says she should make the same as my partner who works twice as many hours? Not to forget my partner offered to pay for her to reinstate her RN license so she could go back to her original career and work more and make more money. She said no, why should she work so hard at 60. Furthermore, now she wants him to pay alimony after age 65. Does it ever end? She left him yet he's getting the shaft. I thought the law was fair. We are so frustrated. How long can she continue to have this go on and on? It's been almost 9 years. Does he not have the right to move forward with his life? Please help. Are there no statute of limitations on divorces? I should also mention he has 3 grown daughters ages 28-33, two of whom he still supports out of love as one is still in University and the other doesn't make enough to make ends meet. That takes roughly another $2-3,000 a month. Between that, the alimony and legal fees the poor man has nothing left. My husband filed a general application for divorce & costs in the Superior court of Justice. I have until April 10 to answer. I am not contesting the divorce. He has conceded to costs relating to said divorce. He has a lawyer I do not. I am currently preparing a separation agreement with said lawyer. This agreement will resolve my previous application for support in the family court. Date is scheduled for April 2 2009(in family court which I will withdraw with no liable costs) said agreement includes possessions, support & ; absolution of liability for costs on my behalf. They do not want to withdraw their application in the superior court. I have asked they at least change said application to simple. Can't this divorce be done in a lawyers office at HIS expense? He did agree to all costs assoc. with the divorce. Why do I have to make an appearance in the Superior court, incur costs, ect???? P.S We have no children and I have not yet signed separation agreement, as I want issues about the divorce(case) included in it. Thank you.

Do you think that it is just as good to do your own separation agreement or should I pay a lawyer to do an agreement. I really don't have a lot of money.

I have filled out form 8A application for divorce form, gotten the supreme court of Justice seal, and served it to my husband. What is the next stage? Is there a paper that explains what happens next? If so, where do I get this form on-line? I was told that it is up to me to find out if the application has been passed, what is the number?

My husband owned a condo before we got married. When we tied the knot he sold his condo so that we can buy our first home in Ajax. Now that we are separating and will continue on for divorce he wants 40K (which is the amount that he put in as the downpayment for the house in Ajax) is he entitled to this?

My parents divorced in 1990 and my mother has lost the agreement(and possibly her lawyer's name although she does have the contact information for the agency she went through to obtain that lawyer). She is not well, but we need to check it to see how much support my father should be paying. The problem is my father has his copy of the agreement but won't make another copy for us. My question is how to go about retrieving the agreement and if I am able to go through the steps and pick it up, or does it have to be one of my parents (i.e. my mother). Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I have paid $5700 to my lawyer, we filled out all the paperwork to prepare for the case conference, which didn't go well. My ex is asking for joint custody, child support & spousal support. He has provided no facts during the case conference most of the items stated were fabrications or untrue.Next steps: I am considering representing myself from here on - what is the success rate?

I need someone to help me fill out some paperwork for a variation motion. If possible someone to represent me. My ex-wife collected 2yrs of payments from my son stating that he was in school and living with her. But I was told from my son that he was working and not living with her. He stated this in writing. I owe the F.R.O $11,000 and want to minus this from my arrears. I got all the info needed in my case. If you could help me please e-mail me.

Hi there, I have court ordered access rights to my 2 children for March break. My ex spouse is denying me access because I'm told a CAS worker is starting an investigation an advised my ex not to let me have the kids. Can this happen? Can CAS on advise to an ex vacate a court order?

We have just sold our home with a fast closing date of end of April. I am having a problem with my husband in regards to where to live. He is unable to get a mortgage as he only works part time. I can buy a house in the same area so the kids can go to the same school. With only 40 days to find a house to move into I don't know what to do. He wants me to wait until he sees where he can move to and is now talking about spousal support. He makes 25 000.00 I make 57 000.00. If he gets this custody with be joint. I am wondering how much could he possible get from me and should I just go and buy the house where the kids can go to the same school? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hello! My friend got married in 1983, then in 1996 she divorced from her husband. This divorce was for convenience because they wanted to settle down in Russia, and it's easier to get a job and everything when you're single in Russia (funny but truth). Eventually her husband moved to Canada sponsored their children, then married her again (second time) in 2008 and sponsored her. She came to Canada a month ago and got her landed immigrant status. Now they want to divorce because they understood they are not created for each other. They have 2 kids, 25 and 23 year old. Question: Will this divorce affect her immigration status?

Inherited money from one spouse that is used to pay down a mortgage on a family home. Is the other spouse legally required to repay 50% of this money when divorcing? Thanks. My husband and I separated on October 31, 2008. Since that date, as you know, the stock market has gone down considerably which means our investments have as well. When we do the equalization, do we use the amounts that we disclosed on October 31, 2008?

My husband is Canadian and I just recently received my Canadian Landed status and my husband has now told me that he has meet someone else and he now wants a divorce can I lose my Canadian Landed status?

My husband left home, after 43 1/2 years of marriage, and moved into his own home. There is another woman involved. There are no child issues. Can either of us claim each other's rrsp. I understand I can go after his pension (which is 4 times mine) and he can go after mine but I was wondering about the rrsps. I would appreciate hearing from you in this regard. Thank you. My husband is a bigamist. what can happen to him? My separation agreement is dated October,2004. What is the time period that a uncontested divorce is granted?

My wife and I separated in Dec of 2007. We wrote up our own agreement, and split our assets down the middle. We had friends witness the document. We both make the same amount of money same with pension, so we are not asking anything from each other. We do not have any children. What is the cheapest and fastest way to file for divorce. We were married in NY State, is that a problem? Thank you.

I live in Canada, and my husband lives in London, Uk, but we got married in Pakistan. Our marriage is not registered in Canada or UK since we just got married this past July. I want a divorce from my husband, but I don't think he will sign the papers. What are the options, time frame and legal fees that I'm looking at? We have no children and none on the way. A prompt reply would be much appreciated. Thanks.

I have been divorced for two years not but we never got the custody arrangement in order. Each year because his pay does change in such a large amount ($20,000) per year we review his tax assessment in order to get the correct support amount. My questions are 1. does he have to provide the full tax assessment? (last year he only provided page two and deleted all the other numbers) I think he lied about his income. 2. how long do I have to go after him for back dated child support, that would included day care costs because he is not paying the correct amount?

I need to know if my spouse and I have been separated for 1 year and there is no financial assets to be divided and there is no children and there are no support issues do we still need to complete a financial statement? We both agree that we want to go our separate ways and we just need to file for a divorce to make it legal. I have read all the information regarding joint uncontested divorce information but there is noting I can find that states that if there is no property, no investments no children and no support issues once so ever you do not have to fill in a financial statement. Please let me know as soon as possible because I have all the forms completed except the form 13 and form 13.1 Financial Statement (Property and Support Claim forms. Also we do not have a separation agreement we have both separated the property and we both have moved on with our lives we just need to make our divorce finial and we want to file a joint application so we can get our divorce completed. Please let me know as soon as possible. Thank you for your help in this matter.
