Instructions
Consent Order
Before you Begin:
You must have a court action in the Court of Queen’s Bench to use these forms.
If you do not, talk to us about how to start that.
If you are doing a Variation Order, you will need a copy of the old order that you
want to change.
The Consent Order form is used when you and the other party have agreed on
the terms that you want in your order. Fill in the blank clauses have been
included for custody, access, child support and spousal support. However, you
can add other clauses to suit your agreement.
Warning!
If you are including a reduction of arrears of support, and the recipient of
support has ever been on Income Assistance, you may not be able to do a
Consent Order. Talk to Maintenance Enforcement to see if there are any
subrogated arrears. If there are, you make an application in court, and serve
the Director of Maintenance Enforcement with your application.
If you are wanting to change ongoing support and the recipient of support is on
Income Assistance now, you may not be able to do a Consent Order. Make an
application in court and serve the Director of Maintenance Enforcement.
Tips:
Write the clauses in complete sentences.
Wrong
Joint custody. Visit on weekends.
Right
The applicant and the respondent shall have joint custody of the
children. The applicant shall have access to the children on
weekends.
Write the clauses as if it is the judge talking, not as if you are talking.
Wrong
I will cover the kids with my dental plan.
Right
The applicant will provide dental insurance for the children through
her employment.
If you are not sure how to write your Order, look at your old court orders, or talk
to a lawyer.
You may have to re-type the Consent Order form to suit your agreement.
