Opinions being sought for preferrred/more realistic option: Option A or Option B? Or a combination of the two? Something different?
Goal is to agree on a fair method to record change of child support via FRO and Proportionate share of S.7 expenses each year...
OPTION A:
1.The party making the lower level of income at April 30<sup>th</sup> of the applicable year (“the first party”) will prepare the Form 15 Motion to Change and/or any other documentation required. That party will then forward the documents to the other party (“the second party”) for their review. This shall be done as soon as possible after April 30<sup>th</sup>.
2.The second party will prepare the Form 15-C Consent to Motion to Change and/or any other documentation required, and will return that to the first party, along with any documents previously forwarded by the first party. The other party shall do this as soon as possible.
3.The first party will file the Form 15, the Form 15-C and any other required documentation with the Court as soon as possible.
4.The first party will provide a copy of the revised Court Order to both the second party and the Family Responsibility Office as soon as possible.
5.The first party may provide to the second party proof of payment of any related Court filing costs. The second party will reimburse the first party for 50% of those Court filing costs within 10 days of receipt of the proof of payment.
OPTION B:
1. Each year the parties shall alternate filing changes to child support and proportionate S.7 reimbursements at their own expense. X will be responsible in odd years and Y will be responsible in even years.
2. The parties will supply copies of their respective Income Tax Return and Assessment to the other no later than April 30th. From line 150 of Y's Income Tax Return with appropriate amendments, child support will be determined. Proportionate S.7 expenses will be either 75% Y and 25% X, or proportionate shares based on their respective earned incomes.
3. Once Income Tax Returns and Assessments have been exchanged for the previous taxation year the adjusted child-care amount shall be determined using the Federal Child Support Guidelines.
4. When only Child Support needs to be adjusted, the party responsible will fill out form 15D "Consent Motion to Change Child Support", submit it to the other party for signature in front of witness and return to filing party as soon as possible. The filing party will sign paper in front of witness and file form with applicable papers with Ontario Court of Justice as soon as possible.
5. When other changes need to be made, i.e. respective shares to S.7 expenses, form 15C "Consent Motion to Change" will be filled out, presented to the other party, signed and witnessed if in agreement and returned to the preparing party for filing with Ontario Court of Justice in appropriate manner.
Or any other suggestions? Thank you!
