When calculating ancillary relief, is it based on the financial situation when form E is completed, when the verbal agreement is reached or the Consent Order is signed?

What would happen if someone's financial situation changed after the comletion of form E. Are they obliged to inform the other party of any major changes, and what would happen if they didn't, the consent order was signed and it information subsequently came to light?

Sorry for so many questions.

I'm guessing, but since its the consent order that counts I guess that that must me the operative date. Doesn't apply to me, but I understand that an ex can apply for financial settlement years later unless a consent order is finalised.

Does anyone know what rules apply when Spousal Maint is changed due to change of circumstances? This seems to me to be a change to the consent order - obviously that needs to be provided for in circumstance of say redundancy but how does this work legally?
