My husband has tried to evade every aspect of the divorce he wanted as he left for a woman he has been in a relationship for years, i did not know at the time the circumstances he has left me in are all consuming.

i have a disability and cannot work, he has not answered any questions, he has lied and lied in every form he has filled even to his own solicitor, i want it over and done with, but he is dragging it out, i cant understand why as he surely has what he wants now

he is requesting my pip information be given to him, he hasnt seen me in 18 months now so he has no clue what my health is like now. its frustrating as he can lie yet i have to give him such personal information regarding my health which he will make public knowledge should he not get what he believes is his. its no point asking the judge to tell him not to do such a thing as he has no care for the law, no respect.

he craves attention positive or otherwise, he is full of self importance, he likes control, i have agreed to give the judge all the information regarding my disabilities but i do not see any reason for him to have it.

any advice is welcome, none sugar coated i dont mind full frank opinions.

Presumably you are still at the voluntary disclosure stage?
It is fair enough for you to disclose details of income from all sources. It is reasonable to ask for an assessment of your ability to work and earn. Details of your PIP application are not relevant.
However this is a two way street.

If he isn't cooperating with disclosure you may need to consider whether an application to court is necessary. You can still settle at any time but it would at least mean he is compelled to provide full disclosure. mediation has to be offered first, unless you have an exemption.
