Final Hearing what to declare

Hi,

I have Final hearing soon.

In terms of disclosure, how much and what I need to declare or disclose to the court and other party.

I am a self-employed and have own company which I started after 10 months of separation. I paid for joint mortgage even though my wife was also ordered to pay half but she didn''t pay.

We have joint loan between us and again she didn''t pay any money towards that.

Now after 2 years of separation, I managed to clear all joint outstanding finances. I have £15-20,000 in my company.

Do i need to share my company details?
Like, company accounts and other details.

Am I still liable to her? She was earning £2000 per month the since separation and just got unemployed because her visa has expired.

What can i expect in Final hearing?


Any suggestions and advice is really appreciated.

Thanks.

To be honest, I am surprised you are near to a final hearing if you have not filed form E.

Have you ?

We have exchanged FormE already an year back. That time I was unemployed for a while and after low pay job.

Now I opened my company few months back and I am being told that I need to take bank statements for past one year.

Do I need to take my company accounts?
As now I am able to earn descent money.

So how this will affect my FDR as this is not for maintenance rather just for official financial separation.
There is no assets only joint liabilities.

She is claiming that she signed document under duress.

She is doing all this to prolong her stay here and harassing me unnecessarily.

Please help

That form E is no good its way to old, you need to complete a new one.

But now tables are turned.

After 2 years. She is done with her job because her visa expired and now I have money.

She withdrew all her money as cash. Last 6 months she withdrew around £10,000 as cash with withdrawals of 100 to 2000.

Do I need to show my full company details and accounts in FormE?

Also now how I can fight this case, as I don''t owe her anything and she just delayed these proceedings to extend her visa.

Do I need to pay her money, if I have more money in banks accounts than her, compare to she don''t have money in her bank accounts but her boyfriend or parents have all the money deposited in their accounts in cash.

No one can answer those questions, we don`t even know how long you were married or if you have children, a host of information is needed before opinions can be given, this is why court need form E, the form needs to be up to date, what happened in the past is less important than assets and income at the time court are asked to help.

As self employed they probably will want accounts but for now just complete form E and wait and see what they ask for.
