What it is
A financial disclosure is a mandatory sworn statement listing all your income, assets, debts, and expenses. Every divorce requires both parties to complete one — it's how the court ensures a fair division.
When you need this
- You're filing for divorce (this is required in every case)
- The court has ordered financial disclosure as part of your proceedings
What you'll need to answer
- Recent pay stubs or proof of income
- Bank and investment account statements
- Last 2–3 years of tax returns
- Mortgage, car loan, and other loan statements
- Monthly bills (utilities, insurance, subscriptions, etc.)
