You must disclose financial information, such as your income, bank/brokerage account statements, and assets, when your divorce involves economic issues like division of assets, alimony, or child support. Disclosing financial information will give you and your spouse a clear picture of the marital estate and your respective economic situations. This knowledge can help you and your spouse negotiate a settlement agreement. Courts will also use your financial information to determine equitable division or spousal support or to calculate a child support obligation under the state guidelines.
