In Kansas. Is it necessary to complete the financial breakdown for divorce papers if the divorce is uncontested with no request for child support or alimony?
Yes. Complete financial statement are requird in almost every divorce, even if alimony and child support are not in the picture.
But is child support not NEEDED or is it not REQUESTED? NOT REQUESTED means that there is a child involved. In that case the court will usually ignore any request for waiver of child support, and the court will order child support anyway. I’ve never seen a case where child support was not awarded. REDUCED, yes, but eliminated, no.
Alimony is not available in many states, but in the states where it is acceptable, the court always has the option to rule that alimony is required even if not requested.
So financial paper ARE necessary.
