    Is it normal to provide both Notices of Assessment/Reassessment AND Tax returns. There are items related to deductions which are non of my ex's business and the important detail required is whats on line 150 which appears on the notices.

    and

    How far back would one expect "clawing" ( bad term and Im not sure what to call it ) in previous years regarding support. i.e 3 years, 4 years, 6 etc?
    There will be some variations. I overpaid 1 year and under paid another so there is a net balance involved Im just curious how far back one normally considers feasible/reasonable/right.

    Thanks

    Yes it's normal to submit the tax return as well if requested, especially because of deductions. She has the right to challenge your deductions.

    I am self employed and claim a number of different expenses, and I accept that if I "overdo" my expense claims she might challenge me. That's just reality.

    If you refuse, she can seek the info through a court order and you'd pay legal costs and have to submit them anyway.

    As far as possible arrears, she can claim for you to pay going back to the last time support was adjusted, for some people it may be ten years. You can then claim that paying a huge lump sum would cause you hardship, you would suggest 1 or 2 years, you either reach a compromise or the court would.
