The court form prescribed financial statement is used to set out each party's relevant financial and other circumstances when a financial application has been made. Both parties are required to simultaneously exchange with each other, and file at court, a statement of their financial circumstances not less than 35 days before the First Appointment, unless the application is under the fast-track procedure where a shorter time period applies, see Practice Note: Fast-track (shortened) Financial remedy procedure. Specified documents are attached to the financial statement. Whether Form E, Form E1 or Form E2 is used will depend on the type of proceedings that are being brought. The Form E is a comprehensive financial statement that is usually the most detailed document completed by the parties and arguably the single most important document in an application for a financial order. For further guidance see Practice Note: Preparation of Form E. Forms E1 and E2 are more limited
