Hi

A bit confused with filling out the Statement of Affairs for Children.

I am parent with care and receive child maintenance from ex and child benefit. Children with me every week night but spend a quite a few weekend nights with ex over the course of a month.

Home details:- The addresses at which the children live now........do I put both ours in? Then provide details of the rooms in both and the fact ex living with his parents etc? Or do I just put mine in?

Does it matter? Ex won't like it if it's not "seen" to be equal and may not sign if his address not included.

If it's just a case of filling it in to keep court and him happy then that's fine.

Many thanks

Normally, unless the children are spending broadly equal time with you both you would put down your adress as this is their primary home.

However, if you think this will be a problem for him you could put something such as "The children live primarily at [your address] and spend on average x nights per month at [ex's address]"
or
"the children live at [your address] for around x nights per month and at [ex's address] for around y nights per month"
