form e

hi,

slightly confused, please help. When completing form E i have been told that i need to include any inheritance that has been received. i recieved 25k few months back from late father, i may add it was received after seperation and after decree nici had been obtained. this money has all gone by clearing debts and getting myself straight. 2 questions really. 1)where do i enter it on the form e if i have to disclose it and 2) would ex be entitled to a share in it, considering when it was received and the fact that there is none of it left anyway.

can any one shed any light as this is really worrying me.

thanks all

I may be wrong on this but you are going to fill in and swear the form e as of now so if the money has gone I don`t think you should include it. It`s all a positive and negative thing you don`t include the inheritance and neither include the debts that have been discharged.
Hope this helps.

Exactly the only place to mention it is in the section which says what has happened in te last 12 months -you will say that post separation Aunt X died and left me £Y and it was utilised by paying off £Z debts.

Could one use the same argument for a bonus received post separation which was used to help clear off debts and get straight ?

Hi

Yes same rule applys form e deals with what you have at the time not what you have had in the past.
