Compiling a Simple Affidavit <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Compiling refers to the process of putting an affidavit together. In the example just given, compiling is fairly simple. The numbered paragraphs of the affidavit go in front. The backing sheet goes behind. The backing sheet must face outwards so anyone turning over the affidavit can read it. <\/p>\n

Affidavit with Exhibits <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

As previously stated, when submitting documents into evidence, a witness must identify the document under oath. When submitting a document as evidence through an affidavit, each document is identified in the body (which is the deponent\u2019s sworn testimony) and identified by assigning an exhibit letter. <\/p>\n

Family Law\u2014Chapter 6 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

6.26 <\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/p>\n

Page Numbering Exhibits <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

An affidavit may have more than one exhibit. Each document may have its own page numbering which makes it difficult when referring to the exhibits. If a person says to look at page 3 of an exhibit, there may be more than one exhibit with a page three. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

To make things clearer, all the pages of the exhibits will have new page numbers added. Rule 10-4(10) states: <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Numbering Exhibit Pages <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

(10) Each page of the documentary exhibits referred to in an affidavit, other than an affidavit of service, must be numbered sequentially, beginning with the first page of the first exhibit and ending with the last page of the last exhibit . . . <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

Jurat <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

The jurat can never appear on a page by itself. <\/b>A part of the body of the affidavit must <\/p>\n

<\/b>appear with the jurat. Otherwise, the jurat could be attached to any affidavit and appear as if <\/p>\n

<\/b>the deponent swore that affidavit. <\/p>\n

<\/b> <\/p>\n

<\/b>Apply lawyer or notary\u2019s stamp, or type or legibly print name of commissioner below the jurat <\/p>\n

<\/b>to allow proper identification of the notary or commissioner the affidavit is sworn in front of. <\/p>\n

<\/b> <\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

Form F37 Child Support Affidavit<\/b> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This affidavit is only required if there are children. Under 11(1)(b) of the Divorce Act<\/i>, the court has a duty to ensure that children are properly supported. Therefore, there must be evidence on the financial situation of the parents. The court must evaluate the evidence and assess the amount of child support proposed in light of that evidence. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Child Support Affidavit<\/b> is a uniquely designed affidavit. Because similar evidence is required for most family law cases involving children, the affidavit has been standardized. For each section of the affidavit, the deponent must select the paragraphs appropriate to their situation and fill in the needed information in those paragraphs. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

However, every family\u2019s situation is different, which means there are certain situations that require additional information. If all of these situations were incorporated into the affidavit, it would be an extremely long document. In addition, because the situations are unique to different families, if they were incorporated into the affidavit, most of the situation specific sections would be left blank every time someone swears a Child Support Affidavit. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The solution is the creation of Supplementary Child Support Fact Sheets which are added to the<\/b> affidavit only when needed<\/b>. There are six different fact sheets. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Family Law\u2014Chapter 6 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

6.27 <\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/p>\n

Supplementary Child Support Fact Sheets<\/b> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fact Sheet A - Special or Extraordinary Expenses <\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Used if either spouse is applying for special or extraordinary expenses under s. 7 of the Guidelines. These expenses include such items as child care expenses; medical or dental insurance premiums; medical related treatment or items; or child\u2019s educational or extra-curricular activities. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fact Sheet B \u2013 Shared Parenting Time <\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Used if the spouses have shared parenting time. Shared Parenting Time<\/b> is when each spouse exercises at least 40% of parenting time with a child over the course of a year. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fact Sheet C \u2013 Split Parenting Time<\/b><\/i> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Used if the spouses have split parenting time. Split Parenting Time<\/b> is a situation where there are two or more children and each spouse has the majority of parenting time (more than 60% <\/p>\n

of parenting time over the course of a year) with one or more of those children. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fact Sheet D \u2013 Children 19 Years or Older<\/b><\/i> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Used when there are children over the age of majority. When there are children over the age of majority, the court can order a different support amount than the Guideline tables. With children over the age of majority, the courts can consider both the parents\u2019 financial circumstances and the children\u2019s own ability to provide for their own needs. <\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

Fact Sheet E \u2013 Undue Hardship <\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

Used when one of the spouses wants to claim undue hardship. Undue hardship can include high debts; high costs to exercise access rights; and existing obligations to support other people (for example, children from previous marriage). <\/p>\n

<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

Fact Sheet F \u2013 Income over $150,000.00 <\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Used when the income of a spouse is over $150,000.00. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Fact Sheets are attached to the affidavit after the jurat, but before any exhibits or<\/b> backing sheet. If more than one Fact Sheet is applicable, they are attached in<\/b> alphabetical order. <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

Form F38 Affidavit \u2013 Desk Order Divorce<\/b> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This affidavit is always required. It may seem like a repeat of all the facts in the Notice of Joint Family Claim, but those were unsworn statements. This affidavit provides the actual evidence of the facts in the Notice of Joint Family Claim. This is also a standardized affidavit similar to the Child Support Affidavit. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This affidavit includes the testimony necessary to support the grounds for divorce, living separate and apart. Statements as to when the couple separated, and periods of attempted reconciliation Family Law\u2014Chapter 6 <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

6.28 <\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/p>\n

are sufficient. If the grounds for divorce are adultery or cruelty, a claimant must make a sole application.* That means that the only grounds for divorce which can be used for a joint<\/b> application for divorce is living separate and apart. <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Examples of the Form F37 Child Support Affidavit and Form F38 Affidavit are given on the following pages. The precedent for the Child Support Affidavit does not include any of the Fact Sheets. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

*Note:<\/b> In a sole application for divorce, if the grounds are adultery, corroborating evidence is needed. This may take the form of additional affidavits of other parties who have knowledge of the adultery, or transcripts where the adulterer has admitted to adultery under oath. <\/b>If the grounds are cruelty, a medical report must be attached to the F38 as an exhibit. <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The following pages show a template for the Child Support Affidavit with tips on how to complete the template: <\/p>\n

PROCEDURES AFTER ENTRY OF DIVORCE DESK ORDER <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Delivery of Entered Order <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

When an entered divorce Order is received by your law firm it will have been stamped as \u201centered\u201d <\/p>\n

by the court registry. Mail a copy to the claimants. Usually the covering letter sending the Order to the claimant reminds the client that the divorce will not become final for 31 days. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Certificate of Divorce <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Since there is a 30-day appeal period, diarize to bring forward the file 31 days after the Divorce Order was made, in order to apply for a Certificate of Divorce. Prepare and have your agent take the following to the registry: <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2022 Requisition requesting Certificate of Divorce + backing sheet (attach a copy of the Divorce Order) <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u2022 Cheque for the fee for the Certificate of Divorce. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Diarize to bring forward the file in 10 days to check for receipt of the Certificate of Divorce. When it is received, send it to your client. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Certificate is not necessary for the divorce to be effective; however, it does provide closure to the parties to receive it. <\/p>\n

Enough time has elapsed to allow the emotions of the estranged couple to cool down, and Ms. <\/i><\/p>\n

Sweeney is satisfied because Mr. Sweeney has paid all maintenance payments as ordered by<\/i> the court. Both Mr. Sweeney and Ms. Sweeney are in new relationships and want a divorce. <\/i><\/p>\n

Since they are now able to communicate with each other without rancor they have decided to<\/i> jointly apply for a divorce. Since property and maintenance issues have been settled, their only<\/i> claim is for divorce. <\/i><\/p>\n

<\/i><\/p>\n

Ms. Amherst will act for Mr. Sweeney. Ms. Sweeney has spoken to a lawyer for advice (as<\/i> recommended by Ms. Amherst), but will be signing any necessary documents on her own<\/i> behalf. <\/i><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Stocker family has settled into a comfortable routine. The children are doing well in school<\/i> and both parents are content with the arrangements they have made for sharing parenting<\/i> responsibilities. Ms. Stocker continues to have sole decision-making responsibility and the<\/i> majority of parenting time and Mr. Stocker is happy with the generous parenting time he has<\/i> with his children. More than a year has passed and the Stockers feel that this is a good time to<\/i> apply for divorce. <\/i><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ms. Amherst will act for Ms. Stocker. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mr. Stocker has retained Mr. Craig Gillies, but Ms. Amherst will prepare all of the necessary documents for the divorce. Mr. Gillies will read the documents and discuss them with Mr. <\/p>\n

Stocker before Mr. Gillies signs. Mr. Gillies will take his affidavit. <\/p>\n

Compiling a Simple Affidavit <\/b><\/p>\n

\n

Compiling refers to the process of putting an affidavit together. In the example just given, compiling is fairly simple. The numbered paragraphs of the affidavit go in front. The backing sheet goes behind. The backing sheet must face outwards so anyone turning over the affidavit can read it. <\/p>\n

Affidavit with Exhibits <\/b><\/p>\n

\n

As previously stated, when submitting documents into evidence, a witness must identify the document under oath. When submitting a document as evidence through an affidavit, each document is identified in the body (which is the deponent\u2019s sworn testimony) and identified by assigning an exhibit letter. <\/p>\n

Page Numbering Exhibits <\/b><\/p>\n

\n

An affidavit may have more than one exhibit. Each document may have its own page numbering which makes it difficult when referring to the exhibits. If a person says to look at page 3 of an exhibit, there may be more than one exhibit with a page three. <\/p>\n

\n

To make things clearer, all the pages of the exhibits will have new page numbers added. Rule 10-4(10) states: <\/p>\n

\n

Numbering Exhibit Pages <\/p>\n

\n

(10) Each page of the documentary exhibits referred to in an affidavit, other than an affidavit of service, must be numbered sequentially, beginning with the first page of the first exhibit and ending with the last page of the last exhibit . . . <\/p>\n

\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

Jurat <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

The jurat can never appear on a page by itself. <\/b>A part of the body of the affidavit must <\/p>\n

<\/b>appear with the jurat. Otherwise, the jurat could be attached to any affidavit and appear as if <\/p>\n

<\/b>the deponent swore that affidavit. <\/p>\n

<\/b> <\/p>\n

<\/b>Apply lawyer or notary\u2019s stamp, or type or legibly print name of commissioner below the jurat <\/p>\n

<\/b>to allow proper identification of the notary or commissioner the affidavit is sworn in front of. <\/p>\n

<\/b> <\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

Form F37 Child Support Affidavit<\/b> <\/p>\n

\n

This affidavit is only required if there are children. Under 11(1)(b) of the Divorce Act<\/i>, the court has a duty to ensure that children are properly supported. Therefore, there must be evidence on the financial situation of the parents. The court must evaluate the evidence and assess the amount of child support proposed in light of that evidence. <\/p>\n

\n

The Child Support Affidavit<\/b> is a uniquely designed affidavit. Because similar evidence is required for most family law cases involving children, the affidavit has been standardized. For each section of the affidavit, the deponent must select the paragraphs appropriate to their situation and fill in the needed information in those paragraphs. <\/p>\n

\n

However, every family\u2019s situation is different, which means there are certain situations that require additional information. If all of these situations were incorporated into the affidavit, it would be an extremely long document. In addition, because the situations are unique to different families, if they were incorporated into the affidavit, most of the situation specific sections would be left blank every time someone swears a Child Support Affidavit. <\/p>\n

\n

The solution is the creation of Supplementary Child Support Fact Sheets which are added to the<\/b> affidavit only when needed<\/b>. There are six different fact sheets. <\/p>\n

\n

Family Law\u2014Chapter 6 <\/p>\n

\n

6.27 <\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/p>\n

Supplementary Child Support Fact Sheets<\/b> <\/p>\n

\n

Fact Sheet A – Special or Extraordinary Expenses <\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

\n

Used if either spouse is applying for special or extraordinary expenses under s. 7 of the Guidelines. These expenses include such items as child care expenses; medical or dental insurance premiums; medical related treatment or items; or child\u2019s educational or extra-curricular activities. <\/p>\n

\n

Fact Sheet B \u2013 Shared Parenting Time <\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

\n

Used if the spouses have shared parenting time. Shared Parenting Time<\/b> is when each spouse exercises at least 40% of parenting time with a child over the course of a year. <\/p>\n

\n

Fact Sheet C \u2013 Split Parenting Time<\/b><\/i> <\/p>\n

\n

Used if the spouses have split parenting time. Split Parenting Time<\/b> is a situation where there are two or more children and each spouse has the majority of parenting time (more than 60% <\/p>\n

of parenting time over the course of a year) with one or more of those children. <\/p>\n

\n

Fact Sheet D \u2013 Children 19 Years or Older<\/b><\/i> <\/p>\n

\n

Used when there are children over the age of majority. When there are children over the age of majority, the court can order a different support amount than the Guideline tables. With children over the age of majority, the courts can consider both the parents\u2019 financial circumstances and the children\u2019s own ability to provide for their own needs. <\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

Fact Sheet E \u2013 Undue Hardship <\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

Used when one of the spouses wants to claim undue hardship. Undue hardship can include high debts; high costs to exercise access rights; and existing obligations to support other people (for example, children from previous marriage). <\/p>\n

<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

Fact Sheet F \u2013 Income over $150,000.00 <\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

\n

Used when the income of a spouse is over $150,000.00. <\/p>\n

\n

The Fact Sheets are attached to the affidavit after the jurat, but before any exhibits or<\/b> backing sheet. If more than one Fact Sheet is applicable, they are attached in<\/b> alphabetical order. <\/b><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

Form F38 Affidavit \u2013 Desk Order Divorce<\/b> <\/p>\n

\n

This affidavit is always required. It may seem like a repeat of all the facts in the Notice of Joint Family Claim, but those were unsworn statements. This affidavit provides the actual evidence of the facts in the Notice of Joint Family Claim. This is also a standardized affidavit similar to the Child Support Affidavit. <\/p>\n

\n

This affidavit includes the testimony necessary to support the grounds for divorce, living separate and apart. Statements as to when the couple separated, and periods of attempted reconciliation Family Law\u2014Chapter 6 <\/p>\n

\n

6.28 <\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/p>\n

are sufficient. If the grounds for divorce are adultery or cruelty, a claimant must make a sole application.* That means that the only grounds for divorce which can be used for a joint<\/b> application for divorce is living separate and apart. <\/b><\/p>\n

\n

Examples of the Form F37 Child Support Affidavit and Form F38 Affidavit are given on the following pages. The precedent for the Child Support Affidavit does not include any of the Fact Sheets. <\/p>\n

\n

*Note:<\/b> In a sole application for divorce, if the grounds are adultery, corroborating evidence is needed. This may take the form of additional affidavits of other parties who have knowledge of the adultery, or transcripts where the adulterer has admitted to adultery under oath. <\/b>If the grounds are cruelty, a medical report must be attached to the F38 as an exhibit. <\/b><\/p>\n

PROCEDURES AFTER ENTRY OF DIVORCE DESK ORDER <\/b><\/p>\n

\n

Delivery of Entered Order <\/b><\/p>\n

\n

When an entered divorce Order is received by your law firm it will have been stamped as \u201centered\u201d <\/p>\n

by the court registry. Mail a copy to the claimants. Usually the covering letter sending the Order to the claimant reminds the client that the divorce will not become final for 31 days. <\/p>\n

\n

Certificate of Divorce <\/b><\/p>\n

\n

Since there is a 30-day appeal period, diarize to bring forward the file 31 days after the Divorce Order was made, in order to apply for a Certificate of Divorce. Prepare and have your agent take the following to the registry: <\/p>\n

\n

\u2022 Requisition requesting Certificate of Divorce + backing sheet (attach a copy of the Divorce Order) <\/p>\n

\n

\u2022 Cheque for the fee for the Certificate of Divorce. <\/p>\n

\n

Diarize to bring forward the file in 10 days to check for receipt of the Certificate of Divorce. When it is received, send it to your client. <\/p>\n

\n

The Certificate is not necessary for the divorce to be effective; however, it does provide closure to the parties to receive it. <\/p>\n

<\/i><\/p>\n

Enough time has elapsed to allow the emotions of the estranged couple to cool down, and Ms. <\/i><\/p>\n

Sweeney is satisfied because Mr. Sweeney has paid all maintenance payments as ordered by<\/i> the court. Both Mr. Sweeney and Ms. Sweeney are in new relationships and want a divorce. <\/i><\/p>\n

Since they are now able to communicate with each other without rancor they have decided to<\/i> jointly apply for a divorce. Since property and maintenance issues have been settled, their only<\/i> claim is for divorce. <\/i><\/p>\n

<\/i><\/p>\n

Ms. Amherst will act for Mr. Sweeney. Ms. Sweeney has spoken to a lawyer for advice (as<\/i> recommended by Ms. Amherst), but will be signing any necessary documents on her own<\/i> behalf. <\/i><\/p>\n
