      IN RE: AMENDMENTS TO THE FLORIDA SUPREME COURT
        APPROVED FAMILY LAW FORMS—NOMENCLATURE.

                                 [February 1, 2018]

PER CURIAM.

      Pursuant to the procedures approved by this Court in Amendments to the

Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure & Family Law Forms, 810 So. 2d 1, 13-14

(Fla. 2000), this Court has internally reviewed the Florida Supreme Court

Approved Family Law Forms and has determined that amendments to the existing

forms are needed in light of the United States Supreme Court’s decision in

Obergefell v. Hodges, 135 S. Ct. 2584 (2015), and other recent statutory and rule

amendments. Input on these issues was received from the Advisory Workgroup on

the Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Forms, which provided valuable

assistance. We have jurisdiction,1 and amend the forms as follows.

      1. See art. V, § 2(a), Fla. Const.
      First, in response to the United States Supreme Court’s decision in

Obergefell, we amend multiple forms to replace gendered terms with gender-

neutral terms, so that the same forms are appropriate for use in the context of both

opposite-sex and same-sex marriages. Next, we amend several existing forms to

ensure that clear, concise, and consistent language is used across similar forms, and

the General Instructions and Glossary to the forms to reflect recent changes to the

forms and to harmonize various definitions contained in the forms with those

contained in the Glossary. We also amend several existing final judgment forms to

separate factual findings from decretal ones, and we amend various forms to reflect

recent amendments to the Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure, adopted in In re

Amendments to Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure, 214 So. 3d 400 (Fla.

2017).

      Additionally, we add language addressing parental consent to a child’s

mental health treatment to several parenting plan forms in accordance with recent

amendments to section 61.13(2)(b)3.a., Florida Statutes (2017). See ch. 2016-241,

§ 81, at 67-68, Laws of Fla. Finally, we adopt two new forms for use in

proceedings commenced pursuant to sections 61.09 and 61.10, Florida Statutes

(2017): 12.904(a)(2) (Petition for Support and Parenting Plan Unconnected with

Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent Minor Children) and 12.994(a)(2) (Final

                                        -2-
Judgment for Support and Parenting Plan Unconnected with Dissolution of

Marriage).

      The amended and new forms are hereby adopted as set forth in the appendix

to this opinion, fully engrossed. The amendments to the forms shall become

effective immediately upon the release of this opinion and may be accessed and

downloaded from the Florida State Court’s website at

http://www.flcourts.org/resources-and-services/court-improvement/problem-

solving-courts/family-courts/family-law-forms.stml. By adoption of the amended

forms, we express no opinion as to their correctness or applicability. We also

direct that the amended forms be published for comment. Interested persons shall

have sixty days from the date of this opinion to file comments with the Court.2

       2. All comments must be filed with the Court on or before April 2, 2018, as
well as a separate request for oral argument if the person filing the comment
wishes to participate in oral argument, which may be scheduled in this case. If
filed by an attorney in good standing with The Florida Bar, the comment must be
electronically filed via the Portal in accordance with In re Electronic Filing in the
Supreme Court of Florida via the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, Fla. Admin. Order
No. AOSC13-7 (Feb. 18, 2013). If filed by a non-lawyer or a lawyer not licensed
to practice in Florida, the comment must be electronically filed via e-mail in
accordance with In re Mandatory Submission of Electronic Copies of Documents,
Fla. Admin. Order No. AOSC04-84 (Sept. 13, 2004). Electronically filed
documents must be submitted in Microsoft Word 97 or higher. Any person unable
to submit a comment electronically must mail or hand-deliver the originally signed
comment to the Florida Supreme Court, Office of the Clerk, 500 South Duval
Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1927; no additional copies are required or will
be accepted.

                                        -3-
     It is so ordered.

LABARGA, C.J., and PARIENTE, LEWIS, QUINCE, CANADY, POLSTON,
and LAWSON, JJ., concur.

THE FILING OF A MOTION FOR REHEARING SHALL NOT ALTER THE
EFFECTIVE DATE OF THESE AMENDMENTS.

          FAMILY LAW FORMS, COMMENTARY, AND INSTRUCTIONS
        GENERAL INFORMATION FOR SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS
                              (02/18)
You should read this General Information thoroughly before taking any other steps to file your case or
represent yourself in court. Most of this information is not repeated in the attached forms. This
information should provide you with an overview of the court system, its participants, and its processes.
It should be useful whether you want to represent yourself in a pending matter or have a better
understanding of the way family court works. This is not intended as a substitute for legal advice from
an attorney. Each case has its own particular set of circumstances, and an attorney may advise you of
what is best for you in your individual situation.

These instructions are not the only place that you can get information about how a family case works.
You may want to look at other books for more help. The Florida Statutes, Florida Family Law Rules of
Procedure, Florida Rules of Civil Procedure, and other legal information or books may be found at the
public library or in a law library at your county courthouse or a law school in your area. If you are filing a
petition for Name Change and/or Adoption, these instructions may not apply.

If the word(s) is printed in bold, this means that the word is being emphasized. Throughout these
instructions, you will also find words printed in bold and underlined. This means that the definitions of
these words may be found in the glossary of common family law terms at the end of this general
information section.

                                              Commentary

1995 Adoption. To help the many people in family law court cases who do not have attorneys to
represent them (pro se litigants), the Florida Supreme Court added these simplified forms and directions
to the Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure. The directions refer to the Florida Family Law Rules of
Procedure or the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure. Many of the forms were adapted from the forms
accompanying the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure. Practitioners should refer to the committee notes
for those forms for rule history.

The forms were adopted by the Court pursuant to Family Law Rules of Procedure, 667 So. 2d 202 (Fla.
1995); In re Petition for Approval of Forms Pursuant to Rule 10-1.1(b) of the Rules Regulating the Florida
Bar—Stepparent Adoption Forms, 613 So. 2d 900 (Fla. 1992); Rules Regulating the Florida Bar—Approval
of Forms, 581 So. 2d 902 (Fla. 1991).

Although the forms are part of these rules, they are not all inclusive and additional forms, as necessary,
should be taken from the Florida Rules of Civil Procedure as provided in Florida Family Law Rules of
Procedure. Also, the following notice has been included to strongly encourage individuals to seek the
advice, when needed, of an attorney who is a member in good standing of the Florida Bar.

1997 Amendment. In 1997, the Florida Family Law Forms were completely revised to simplify and
correct the forms. Additionally, the appendices were eliminated, the instructions contained in the
appendices were incorporated into the forms, and the introduction following the Notice to Parties was
created. Minor changes were also made to the Notice to Parties set forth below.

    NOTICE TO PARTIES WHO ARE NOT REPRESENTED BY AN ATTORNEY WHO IS A
                MEMBER IN GOOD STANDING OF THE FLORIDA BAR

If you have questions or concerns about these forms, instructions, commentary, the use of the forms,
or your legal rights, it is strongly recommended that you talk to an attorney. If you do not know an
attorney, you should call the lawyer referral service listed in the yellow pages of the telephone book
under “Attorney.” If you do not have the money to hire an attorney, you should call the legal aid
office in your area.

Because the law does change, the forms and information about them may have become outdated.
You should be aware that changes may have taken place in the law or court rules that would affect
the accuracy of the forms or instructions.

In no event will the Florida Supreme Court, The Florida Bar, or anyone contributing to the production
of these forms or instructions be liable for any direct, indirect, or consequential damages resulting
from their use.

                                      FAMILY LAW PROCEDURES

Communication with the court. Ex parte communication is communication with the judge with only one
party present. Judges are not allowed to engage in ex parte communication except in very limited
circumstances, so, absent specific authorization to the contrary, you should not try to speak with or
write to the judge in your case unless the other party is present or has been properly notified. If you
have something you need to tell the judge, you must ask for a hearing and give notice to the other
party or file a written statement in the court file and send a copy of the written statement to the
other party.

Filing a case. A case begins with the filing of a petition. A petition is a written request to the court for
some type of legal action. The person who originally asks for legal action is called the petitioner and
remains the petitioner throughout the case.

A petition is given to the clerk of the circuit court, whose office is usually located in the county
courthouse or a branch of the county courthouse. A case number is assigned and an official court file is
opened. Delivering the petition to the clerk’s office is called filing a case. A filing fee is usually required.

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file a petition or
other pleadings, motions, and documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so.
If you choose to file your petition electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the circuit within which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                                                     -6-
Service of the original petition or supplemental petition. When one party files a petition, motion, or
other pleading, the other party must be “served” with a copy of the document. This means that the
other party is given proper notice of the pending action(s) and any scheduled hearings. The person
against whom the original legal action is being requested is called the respondent, because he or she is
expected to respond to the petition. The respondent remains the respondent throughout the case.

Personal service of the petition and summons on the respondent by a deputy sheriff or private process
server is required in all original petitions and supplemental petitions, unless constructive service is
permitted by law. Personal service may also be required in other actions by some judges.

 Constructive Service. If you absolutely do not know where the other party to your case lives or if the
other party resides in another state, you may be able to use constructive service; however, if
constructive service is used, other than granting a divorce, the court may only grant limited relief, which
cannot include either alimony or child support. For more information on constructive service, see
Notice of Action for Dissolution of Marriage (No Child or Financial Support), Florida Supreme Court
Approved Family Law Form 12.913(a)(1), Notice of Action for Family Cases with Minor Child(ren),
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.913(a)(2), Affidavit of Diligent Search and Inquiry,
Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.913(b), and Affidavit of Diligent Search, Florida Family
Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.913(c).. Additionally, if the other party is in the military service of the
United States, additional steps for service may be required. See, for example, Memorandum for
Certificate of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.912(a). In sum, the
law regarding constructive service and service on an individual in the military is very complex and you
may wish to consult an attorney regarding these issues.

Forms for service of process are included in the Florida Family Law Forms, along with more detailed
instructions and information regarding service. The instructions to those forms should be read carefully
to ensure that you have properly served the other party. If proper service is not obtained, the court
cannot hear your case. Service must be in accordance with Florida Rule of Judicial Administration
2.516.

Subsequent Service: Other than the original or supplemental petitions, any time you file additional
pleadings or motions in your case, you must provide a copy to the other party and include a certificate
of service. Likewise, the other party must provide you with copies of everything that he or she files. If
the other party is represented by an attorney, you should serve the attorney unless service upon the
other party is required by the court.

Electronic Service. After the initial service of process of the petitioner or supplemental petition by the
Sheriff or certified process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all
documents required or permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-
mail) except in certain circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth
in the Rules of Judicial Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means
serving or receiving pleadings by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal,
you must review Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org
through the link to the Rules of Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting
Started, or Rules of Court in the A-Z Topical Index.

                                                  -7-
SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail, the
procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature appears. Please
CAREFULLY read the rules and instructions for: Certificate of Service (General), Florida Supreme Court
Approved Family Law Form 12.914; Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516.

Default. After being served with a petition or counterpetition, the other party has 20 days to file a
response. If a response to a petition is not filed, the petitioner may file a Motion for Default, Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.922(a), with the clerk. This means that you may proceed
with your case and set a final hearing, and a judge will make a decision, even if the other party will not
cooperate. For more information, see rule 12.080(c), Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure.

Answer and Counterpetition. After being served, the respondent has 20 days to file an answer
admitting or denying each of the allegations contained in the petition. In addition to an answer, the
respondent may also file a counterpetition. In a counterpetition, the respondent may request the same
or some other relief or action not requested by the petitioner. If the respondent files a counterpetition,
the petitioner should then file an Answer to Counterpetition, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family
Law Form 12.903(d), and either admit or deny the allegations in the respondent’s counterpetition.

Mandatory disclosure. Rule 12.285, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure, requires each party in a
dissolution of marriage to exchange certain information and documents, and file a Family Law Financial
Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c). Failure to make this required
disclosure within the time required by the Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure may allow the court to
dismiss the case or to refuse to consider the pleadings of the party failing to comply. This requirement
also must be met in other family law cases, except adoptions, simplified dissolutions of marriage,
enforcement proceedings, contempt proceedings, and proceedings for injunctions for domestic or
repeat violence. The Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Disclosure, Florida Family Law Rules of
Procedure Form 12.932, lists the documents that must be given to the other party. For more
information see rule 12.285, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure, and the instructions to the
Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Disclosure, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form
12.932.

Parenting Plan. If your case involves minor or dependent child(ren), a Parenting Plan shall be approved
or established by the court. Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form,
12.995(a), Safety-Focused Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(b),
or Relocation/Long Distance Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.995(c). The Parenting Plan shall be developed and agreed to by the parents and approved by a court.
If the parents cannot agree, or if the agreed Parenting Plan is not approved, the court must establish a
Parenting Plan. The Parenting Plan shall contain a time-sharing schedule and should address the issues
regarding the child(ren)’s education, health care, and physical, social, and emotional well-being.

Setting a hearing or trial. Generally, the court will have hearings on motions, final hearings on
uncontested or default cases, and trials on contested cases. Before setting your case for final hearing
or trial, certain requirements such as completing mandatory disclosure and filing certain papers and
having them served on the other party must be met. These requirements vary depending on the type of
General Information for Self-Represented Litigants (02/18)
                                                   -8-
case and the procedures in your particular jurisdiction. For further information, you should refer to the
instructions for the type of form you are filing.

Next, you must obtain a hearing or trial date so that the court may consider your request. You should
ask the clerk of court, or family law intake staff about the local procedure for setting a hearing or trial,
which you should attend. These family law forms contain orders and final judgments, which the judge
may use. You should ask the clerk of court or family law intake staff if you need to bring one of these
forms with you to the hearing or trial. If so, you should type or print the heading, including the circuit,
county, case number, division, and the parties’ names, and leave the rest blank for the judge to
complete at your hearing or trial.

The shaded areas below explain different parts of family law forms. Although each form you use may
not contain each part explained below, all forms contain a case style which identifies the judicial circuit
and county in Florida in which the case is filed, the division within that circuit to which the case is
assigned, the parties in the case, and the number of the case. Some, but not all, forms require that the
person signing the form state under oath that what he or she claims in the form is true; those particular
forms must be signed in the presence of either a deputy clerk of the court or a notary public who
witnesses your signature before notarizing the form. Most forms contain a nonlawyer clause which
requests certain information be provided by any person who is not licensed to practice law in the State
of Florida who has helped you to complete the form.

Each form that provides a blank space will have instructions on how to fill in the blank. Please follow all
instructions which ask for specific information. Often these instructions appear in italics.

Note: The following definitions are intended to be helpful, BUT they are not intended to constitute
      legal advice or address every possible meaning of the term(s) contained in this glossary.

Affidavit - a written statement in which the facts stated are sworn or affirmed to be true.
Alimony-spousal support which may be ordered by the court in a proceeding for dissolution of marriage.
Types of alimony include: bridge-the-gap, durational, rehabilitative, or retroactive, and may be either
temporary or permanent. The court may order periodic payments, payments in lump sum, or both. In
determining whether to award alimony, the court must determine whether either party has an actual
need for alimony and whether the other party has the ability to pay. The court must consider the
factors set forth in section 61.08, Florida Statutes, and must make certain written findings. An alimony
award may not leave the paying party with significantly less net income than that of the receiving party
without written findings of exceptional circumstances.
Answer - written response by a respondent that states whether he or she admits (agrees with) or denies
(disagrees with) the allegations in the petition. Any allegations not specifically denied are considered to
be admitted.
Appeal - asking a district court of appeal to review the decision in your case. There are strict procedural
and time requirements for filing an appeal.
Asset - everything owned by you or your spouse, including property, cars, furniture, bank accounts,
jewelry, life insurance policies, businesses, or retirement plans. An asset may be marital or nonmarital,
but that distinction is for the court to determine if you and your spouse do not agree.
Attorney - a person with special education and training in the field of law who is a member in good
standing of The Florida Bar and licensed to practice law in Florida. An attorney is the only person who is
allowed to give you legal advice. An attorney may file your case and represent you in court, or just
advise you of your rights before you file your own case. In addition to advising you of your rights, an
attorney may tell you what to expect and help prepare you for court. In family law matters, you are not
entitled to a court-appointed lawyer, like a public defender in a criminal case. However, legal assistance
is often available for those who are unable to hire a private attorney. You may consult the yellow pages
of the telephone directory for a listing of legal aid or lawyer referral services in your area, or ask your
local clerk of court or family law intake staff what services are available in your area. You may also
obtain information from the Florida Supreme Court’s Internet site located at http://www.flcourts.org.
Bond - money paid to the clerk of court by one party in a case, to be held and paid to an enjoined party
in the event that the first party causes loss or damage of property as a result of wrongfully enjoining the
other party.
Beneficiary Designation-Florida law provides that a beneficiary designation made by or on behalf of a
party providing for the payment or transference of an asset or benefit upon his or her death to the other
spouse is void when the final judgment dissolving or declaring a marriage invalid is signed, unless the
final judgment specifically states otherwise. Federal law and other statutory provisions may also apply.
This includes, but is not limited to, such assets as life insurance policies, annuities, employee benefit
plans, individual retirement accounts, and payable-on-death accounts. Whether or not to continue a
beneficiary designation is a complex area of the law and you may wish to consult with an attorney.

limited; that relief cannot include either alimony or child support. For more information on service, see

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
                       FORM 12.901(b)(1),
   PETITION FOR DISSOLUTION OF MARRIAGE WITH DEPENDENT OR
                       MINOR CHILD(REN)
                            (02/18)

                                   When should this form be used?

This form should be used when you are filing for a dissolution of marriage, and you and your spouse have
a dependent or minor child(ren) together, or a spouse is pregnant. You or your spouse must have lived
in Florida for at least 6 months before filing for a dissolution in Florida. You must file this form if the
following is true:

       You and your spouse have a dependent or minor child(ren) together or a spouse is pregnant.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign the form
before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in
the county where you live and keep a copy for your records. Because you are filing the petition in this
proceeding, you may also be referred to as the petitioner and your spouse as the respondent.

                          IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                                         What should I do next?

For your case to proceed, you must properly notify your spouse of the petition. If you know where your
spouse lives, you should use personal service. If you absolutely do not know where your spouse lives,
you may use constructive service. You may also be able to use constructive service if your spouse resides
in another state or country; however, if constructive service is used, other than granting a divorce, the
court may only grant limited relief, which cannot include either spousal support (alimony) or child support.
For more information on constructive service, see Notice of Action for Family Cases with Minor
Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.913(a)(2), and Affidavit of Diligent
Search and Inquiry, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.913(c). If your spouse is in the military
service of the United States, additional steps for service may be required. See, for example, Memorandum
for Certificate of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.912(a) and
Affidavit of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.912(b). In sum, the
law regarding constructive service and service on an individual in the military service is very complex and
you may wish to consult an attorney regarding these issues.

                                                     - 18 -
If personal service is used, your spouse has 20 days to answer after being served with your petition. Your
case will then generally proceed in one of the following three ways:

DEFAULT. If after 20 days, your spouse has not filed an answer, you may file a Motion for Default, Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.922(a), with the clerk of court. Then, if you have filed all
of the required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a
final hearing. You must notify your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

UNCONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer that agrees with everything in your petition or an answer
and waiver, and you have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers, you
may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a final hearing. You must notify
your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida Supreme Court Approved
Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

CONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer or an answer and counterpetition, which disagrees with or
denies anything in your petition, and you are unable to settle the disputed issues, you should file a Notice
for Trial, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.924, after you have complied with
mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers. Some circuits may require the completion of
mediation before a final hearing may be set. You should contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or
judicial assistant for instructions on how to set your case for trial (final hearing). If your spouse files an
answer and counterpetition, you should answer the counterpetition within 20 days using an Answer to
Counterpetition, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.903(d).

                              Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read General Information for Self-Represented Litigants found at the
beginning of these forms. The words that are in bold underline in these instructions are defined there.
For further information, see chapter 61, Florida Statutes.

                  IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

and a time-sharing schedule, a judge will decide for you as part of establishing a Parenting Plan. The judge
Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.901(b)(1), Petition for Dissolution of
Marriage with Dependent or Minor Child(ren) (02/18)
                                                     - 20 -
will decide the parenting arrangements and time-sharing based on the child(ren)’s best interests.
Regardless of whether there is an agreement, the court reserves jurisdiction to modify issues relating to
the minor child(ren).

The judge may request a parenting plan recommendation or appoint a guardian ad litem in your case.
This means that a neutral person will review your situation and report to the judge concerning parenting
issues. The purpose of such intervention is to be sure that the best interests of the child(ren) is (are) being
served. For more information, you may consult section 61.13, Florida Statutes.

A parenting course must be completed prior to entry of the final judgment. You should contact the clerk,
family law intake staff, or judicial assistant about requirements for parenting courses where you live.

Listed below are some terms with which you should become familiar before completing your petition. If
you do not fully understand any of the terms below or their implications, you should speak with an
attorney before going any further.

       Shared Parental Responsibility
       Sole Parental Responsibility
       Supervised Time-Sharing
       No contact
       Parenting Plan
       Parenting Plan Recommendation
       Time-Sharing Schedule

Child Support. Both parents are required to provide financial support for their minor or dependent
child(ren); however, the court may order one parent to pay child support to the other parent. Florida has
adopted guidelines for determining the amount of child support to be paid. These guidelines are based
on the combined income of both parents and take into account the financial contributions of both parents
and the number of overnights the child(ren) spend with each parent. You must file a Family Law Financial
Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c), and your spouse will be required
to do the same. From your financial affidavits, you should be able to calculate the amount of child support
that should be paid using the Child Support Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure
Form 12.902(e). Because the child support guidelines take several factors into consideration, change over
time, and vary from state to state, your child support obligation may be more or less than that of other
people in seemingly similar situations.

Alimony. Alimony may be awarded to a spouse if the judge finds that one spouse has an actual need for
it and also finds that the other spouse has the ability to pay. If you want alimony, you must request it in
writing in the original petition. If you do not request alimony in writing before the final hearing, it is
waived (you may not request it later). You may request permanent alimony, bridge-the-gap alimony,
durational alimony, and/or rehabilitative alimony. If alimony is awarded, the judge may order periodic
payments, payments in lump sum, or both.

Marital/Nonmarital Assets and Liabilities. Florida law requires an equitable distribution of marital assets
and marital liabilities. “Equitable” does not necessarily mean “equal.” Many factors, including child
support, time-sharing, and alimony awards, may lead the court to make an unequal (but still equitable)
distribution of assets and liabilities. Nonmarital assets and nonmarital liabilities are those assets and
Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.901(b)(1), Petition for Dissolution of
Marriage with Dependent or Minor Child(ren) (02/18)
                                                     - 21 -
liabilities which the parties agree or the court determines belong to, or are the responsibility of, only one
of the parties. If the parties agree or the court finds an asset or liability to be nonmarital, the judge will
not consider it when distributing marital assets and liabilities.

Temporary Relief. If you need temporary relief regarding temporary use of assets, temporary
responsibility for liabilities, parental responsibility and time-sharing with child(ren), temporary child
support, or temporary alimony, you may file a Motion for Temporary Support and Time-Sharing with
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(a). For more
information, see the instructions for that form.

Marital Settlement Agreement. If you and your spouse are able to reach an agreement on any or all of
the issues, you should file a Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent
or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(1). Both of you must
sign this agreement before a notary public or deputy clerk. Any issues on which you are unable to agree
will be considered contested and settled by the judge at the final hearing.

Parenting Plan. In all cases involving minor or dependent child(ren), a Parenting Plan shall be approved
or established by the court. If you and your spouse have reached an agreement, you should file one of the
following: Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(a), Safety-Focused
Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(b), or Relocation/Long-
Distance Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(c), which addresses
the time-sharing schedule for the child(ren). If you have not reached an agreement, a proposed Parenting
Plan may be filed. If the parties are unable to agree, a Parenting Plan will be established by the court.

Final Judgment Form. These family law forms contain a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.990(c)(1), which
the judge may use if your case is contested. If you and your spouse reach an agreement on all of the issues,
the judge may use a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent or Minor Child(ren)
(Uncontested), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.990(b)(1). You should check with
the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to see if you need to bring a final judgment with you
to the hearing. If so, you should type or print the heading, including the circuit, county, case number,
division, and the parties’ names, and leave the rest blank for the judge to complete at your hearing or
trial.

Nonlawyer. Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps you
fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida Family Law
Rules of Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you fill out these
forms also must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of the last page of
every form he or she helps you complete.

Dependent or Minor Child(ren) (02/18)

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
                      FORM 12.901(b)(2)
 PETITION FOR DISSOLUTION OF MARRIAGE WITH PROPERTY BUT NO
               DEPENDENT OR MINOR CHILD(REN)
                           (02/18)
                                 When should this form be used?

This form may be used when you are filing for a dissolution of marriage, and you and your spouse have
marital assets and/or marital liabilities, but you do not have any minor or dependent children and neither
of you is pregnant. You or your spouse must have lived in Florida for at least 6 months before filing for a
dissolution in Florida. If you and your spouse agree on all issues and both can attend the hearing, you
may want to file a Petition for Simplified Dissolution of Marriage, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure
Form 12.901(a); however, you cannot file a Petition for a Simplified Dissolution of Marriage if any of the
following are true:

       You disagree about property, debts, or other matters and wish to have a judge settle them for
        you.
       Either you or your spouse is seeking spousal support (alimony).
       You would like to ask questions and get documents concerning your spouse’s income, expenses,
        assets, debts, or other matters before having a trial or settlement.
       You would like to reserve your rights to have any matters reconsidered or appeal the judge’s
        decision.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign the form
before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in
the county where you live and keep a copy for your records. Because you are filing the petition in this
proceeding, you may also be referred to as the petitioner and your spouse as the respondent.

                      IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                                       What should I do next?

For your case to proceed, you must properly notify your spouse of the petition. If you know where he or
she lives, you should use personal service. If you absolutely do not know where he or she lives, you may
use constructive service. You may also be able to use constructive service if your spouse resides in another
state or country; however, if constructive service is used, other than granting a divorce, the court may
only grant limited relief which cannot include spousal support (alimony). For more information on

of Marriage with Property but No Dependent or Minor Child(ren) (02/18)
                                                  - 30 -
constructive service, see Notice of Action for Dissolution of Marriage (No Child or Financial Support),
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.913(a)(1), and Affidavit of Diligent Search and
Inquiry, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.913(b). If your spouse is in the military service of
the United States, additional steps for service may be required. See, for example, Memorandum for
Certificate of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.912(a) and Affidavit
of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.912(b). In sum, the law
regarding constructive service and service on an individual in the military service is very complex and you
may wish to consult an attorney regarding these issues.

If personal service is used, your spouse has 20 days to answer after being served with your petition. Your
case will then generally proceed in one of the following three ways:

DEFAULT. If after 20 days, your spouse has not filed an answer, you may file a Motion for Default, Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.922(a), with the clerk of court. Then, if you have filed all
of the required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a
final hearing. You must notify your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

UNCONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer that agrees with everything in your petition or an answer
and waiver, and you have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers, you
may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a final hearing. You must notify
your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida Supreme Court Approved
Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

CONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer or an answer and counterpetition, which disagrees with or
denies anything in your petition, and you are unable to settle the disputed issues, you should file a Notice
for Trial, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.924, after you have complied with
mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers. Some circuits may require the completion of
mediation before a final hearing may be set. You should contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or
judicial assistant for instructions on how to set your case for trial (final hearing). If your spouse files an
answer and counterpetition, you should answer the counterpetition within 20 days using an Answer to
Counterpetition, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.903(d).

                             Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read “General Information for Self-Represented Litigants” found at the
beginning of these forms. The words that are in bold underline in these instructions are defined there.
For further information, see chapter 61, Florida Statutes.

              IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving

Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link
to the Rules of Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules
of Court in the A-Z Topical Index

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail, the
procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature appears. Please
CAREFULLY read the rules and instructions for: Certificate of Service (General), Florida Supreme Court
Approved Family Law Form 12.914; Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516.

                                             Special notes...

If you do not have the money to pay the filing fee, you may obtain an Application for Determination of
Civil Indigent Status from the clerk, fill it out, and the clerk will determine whether you are eligible to
have filing fees deferred.

If you want to keep your address confidential because you are the victim of sexual battery, aggravated
child abuse, aggravated stalking, harassment, aggravated battery, or domestic violence, do not enter the
address, telephone, and fax information at the bottom of this form. Instead, file a Request for
Confidential Filing of Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.980(h).

With this form, you must also file the following:

       Affidavit of Corroborating Witness, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(i)
        OR photocopy of current Florida driver’s license, Florida identification card, or voter’s
        registration card (issue date of copied document must be at least six months before date case is
        actually filed with the clerk of the circuit court).
       Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with No Dependent or Minor
        Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(2), if you and your
        spouse have reached an agreement on any or all of the issues.
       Notice of Social Security Number, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(j).
       Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c).
        (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on the respondent, if not filed at the
        time of the petition.)
       Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Disclosure, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure
        Form 12.932. (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on the respondent, if
        not filed at the time of the petition, unless you and your spouse have agreed not to exchange
        these documents.)

                                                    - 32 -
Alimony. Alimony may be awarded to a spouse if the judge finds that one spouse has an actual need for
it and also finds that the other spouse has the ability to pay. If you want alimony, you must request it in
writing in the original petition. If you do not request alimony in writing before the final hearing, it is
waived (you may not request it later). You may request permanent alimony, bridge-the-gap alimony,
durational alimony, and/or rehabilitative alimony. If alimony is awarded, the judge may order periodic
payments, payments in lump sum, or both.

Marital/Nonmarital Assets and Liabilities. Florida law requires an equitable distribution of marital assets
and marital liabilities. “Equitable” does not necessarily mean “equal.” Many factors, including alimony
awards, may lead the court to make an unequal (but still equitable) distribution of assets and liabilities.
Nonmarital assets and nonmarital liabilities are those assets and liabilities which the parties agree or the
court determines belong to, or are the responsibility of, only one of the parties. If the parties agree or the
court finds an asset or liability to be nonmarital, the judge will not consider it when distributing marital
assets and liabilities.

Temporary Relief. If you need temporary relief regarding temporary use of assets, temporary
responsibility for liabilities, or temporary alimony, you may file a Motion for Temporary Support with No
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(c). For more
information, see the instructions for that form.

Marital Settlement Agreement. If you and your spouse are able to reach an agreement on any or all of
the issues, you should file a Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with Property
But No Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(2).
Both spouses must sign this agreement before a notary public or deputy clerk. Any issues on which you
are unable to agree will be considered contested and settled by the judge at the final hearing.

Final Judgment Forms. These family law forms contain a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with
Property but No Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.990(c)(2), which the judge may use if your case is contested. If you and your spouse reach an
agreement on all of the issues, the judge may use a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with
Property but No Dependent or Minor Child(ren) (Uncontested), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family
Law Form 12.990(b)(2). You should check with the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to
see if you need to bring a final judgment with you to the hearing. If so, you should type or print the
heading, including the circuit, county, case number, division, and the parties’ names, and leave the rest
blank for the judge to complete at your hearing or trial.

Nonlawyer. Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps
you fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida
Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.900 (a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you fill
out these forms also must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of the
last page of every form he or she helps you complete.

       NO DEPENDENT OR MINOR CHILD(REN) OR PROPERTY

                                   When should this form be used?

This form may be used when you are filing for a dissolution of marriage, and you and your spouse have
no marital assets or marital liabilities, no minor or dependent children, neither spouse is seeking spousal
support (alimony), and neither spouse is pregnant. You or your spouse must have lived in Florida for at
least 6 months before filing for a dissolution in Florida. If you and your spouse agree on all issues and both
can attend the hearing, you may want to file a Petition for Simplified Dissolution of Marriage, Florida
Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.901(a); however, you cannot file a Petition for a Simplified
Dissolution of Marriage if any of the following are true:

       Either you or your spouse is seeking spousal support (alimony).
       You would like to ask questions and get documents concerning your spouse’s income, expenses,
        assets, debts, or other matters before having a trial or settlement.
       You would like to reserve your rights to have any matters reconsidered or appeal the judge’s
        decision.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign the form
before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in
the county where you live and keep a copy for your records. Because you are filing the petition in this
proceeding, you may also be referred to as the petitioner and your spouse as the respondent.

                       IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                                         What should I do next?

For your case to proceed, you must properly notify your spouse of the petition. If you know where he
or she lives, you should use personal service. If you absolutely do not know where he or she lives, you
may use constructive service. You may also be able to use constructive service if your spouse resides in
another state or country. However, if constructive service is used, other than granting a divorce, the
court may only grant limited relief, which cannot include spousal support (alimony). For more
information on constructive service, see Notice of Action for Dissolution of Marriage (No Child or
Instructions to Florida Supreme Court Approved Law Form 12.901(b)(3), Petition for Dissolution of Marriage with
No Dependent or Minor Child(ren) or Property (02/18)

Financial Support), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.913(a)(1), and Affidavit of
Diligent Search and Inquiry, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.913(b). If your spouse is in
the military service of the United States, additional steps for service may be required. See, for example,
Memorandum for Certificate of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.912(a) and Affidavit of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.912(b). In sum, the law regarding constructive service and service on an individual in the military
service is very complex and you may wish to consult an attorney regarding these issues.

If personal service is used, your spouse has 20 days to answer after being served with your petition.
Your case will then generally proceed in one of the following three ways:

DEFAULT. If after 20 days, your spouse has not filed an answer, you may file a Motion for Default,
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.922(a), with the clerk of court. Then, if you have
filed all of the required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to
set a final hearing. You must notify your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General),
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

UNCONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer that agrees with everything in your petition or an answer
and waiver, and you have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers, you

following statements are true:

    1. We were married to each other on {date}                                       .

       honestly included everything we could think of in listing our assets (everything we own and that
       is owed to us) and our debts (everything we owe), and that we believe the other has been open
       and honest in writing this agreement.

    3. We have both filed a Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form
       12.902(b) or (c). Because we have voluntarily made full and fair disclosure to each other of all our
       assets and debts, we waive any further disclosure under rule 12.285, Florida Family Law Rules of
       Procedure.

    4. Each of us agrees to execute and exchange any papers that might be needed to complete this

                                   When should this form be used?

This form may be used to corroborate residency in a dissolution of marriage proceeding. To get a
dissolution (divorce) in Florida, either party must have lived in Florida for at least 6 months before filing
the petition. Residency may be corroborated by a valid Florida’s driver’s license, Florida identification
card, or voter’s registration card (issue date of document must be at least 6 months before the date the
case is actually filed with the clerk of the circuit court), or the testimony or affidavit of someone other
than you or your spouse. This form is used to corroborate residency by affidavit. The person signing this
form must know that you have lived in the State of Florida for at least 6 months before the date you filed
your petition for dissolution of marriage.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink, and signed in the presence of a notary public or deputy
clerk. After completing this form, you should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in the
county where the petition was filed and keep a copy for you records.

                       IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                                           What should I do next?

A copy of this form must be mailed, e-mailed, or hand delivered to the other party in your case, if it is not
served on him or her with your initial papers.

               IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving pleadings
by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must review Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link to the Rules of

Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules of Court in the
A-Z Topical Index.

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT

procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form

Approved Family Law Form 12.914; Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516.

This form should be used when you have been served with a petition for dissolution of marriage
and you do not wish to contest it or appear at a hearing. If you file this form, you are admitting all

                    IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents

Rule of Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in

        (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on you, if not filed at the time

       Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Disclosure, Florida Family Law Rules of
        Procedure Form 12.932. (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on you,
        if not filed at the time you file this answer, unless you and the other party have agreed not
        to exchange these documents.)

Parenting Plan and Time-Sharing. By filing this answer and waiver, you are agreeing to any
parenting plan and time-sharing requests in the petition. The judge may request a parenting plan
recommendation or appoint a guardian ad litem in your case. This means that a neutral person will
review your situation and report to the judge concerning parenting issues. The purpose of such
intervention is to be sure that the best interests of the child(ren) is (are) being served. For more
information, you may consult section 61.13, Florida Statutes.

A parenting course must be completed prior to entry of a final judgment. You should contact the
clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant about requirements for parenting courses where
you live.

Listed below are some terms with which you should become familiar before completing your answer
to the petition. If you do not fully understand any of the terms below or their implications, you
should speak with an attorney before going any further.

   Shared Parental Responsibility
   Sole Parental Responsibility
   Supervised Time-Sharing
   No contact
   Parenting Plan
   Parenting Plan Recommendation
   Time-Sharing Schedule

Child Support. By filing this answer and waiver, you are agreeing to any requests for child support in
the petition. Both parents are required to provide financial support for their minor or dependent
child(ren); however, the court may order one parent to pay child support to the other parent.
Florida has adopted guidelines for determining the amount of child support to be paid. These
guidelines are based on the combined income of both parents and take into account the financial
contributions of both parents and the number of overnights the child(ren) spend with each parent.
You must file a Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form
12.902(b) or (c), and your spouse will be required to do the same. From your financial affidavits, you
should be able to calculate the amount of child support that should be paid using the Child Support
Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e). Because the child

Copy of Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage (02/18)
                                                 - 87 -
support guidelines take several factors into consideration, change over time, and vary from state to
state, your child support obligation may be more or less than that of other people in seemingly
similar situations.

Alimony. By filing this answer and waiver, you are agreeing to any requests for alimony in the
petition. Alimony may be awarded to a spouse if the judge finds that one spouse has an actual need
for it and also finds that the other spouse has the ability to pay. If you want alimony, you must
request it in writing in a counterpetition and should not use this form. If you do not request
alimony in writing before the final hearing, it is waived (you may not request it later). You may
request permanent alimony, bridge-the-gap alimony, durational alimony, and/or rehabilitative
alimony. If alimony is awarded, the judge may order periodic payments, lump sum payments. Or
both.

Marital/Nonmarital Assets and Liabilities. Florida law requires an equitable distribution of marital
assets and marital liabilities. “Equitable” does not necessarily mean “equal.” Many factors,
including child support, time-sharing and alimony awards, may lead the court to make an unequal
(but still equitable) distribution of assets and liabilities. Nonmarital assets and nonmarital liabilities
are those assets and liabilities which the parties agree or the court determines belong to, or are the
responsibility of, only one of the parties. By filing this answer and waiver, you are agreeing to any
requests in the petition regarding division of assets and liabilities.

Final Judgment. You should receive a copy of the Final Judgment in the mail. If, for some reason
you do not, you should contact the clerk’s office to request a copy. It is important for you to review
a copy of the Final Judgment in your case to see what happened and to know what you must do and
what you are entitled to receive.

Nonlawyer. Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer
helps you fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer,
Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer
helping you fill out these forms also must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on
the bottom of the last page of every form he or she helps you complete.

Parenting and Time-sharing. If you and your spouse are unable to agree on parenting arrangements
and a time-sharing schedule, a judge will decide for you as part of establishing a Parenting Plan. The
judge will decide the parenting arrangements and time-sharing schedule based on the child(ren)’s
best interests. Regardless of whether there is an agreement, the court reserves jurisdiction to
modify issues relating to the minor child(ren).

The judge may request a parenting plan recommendation or appoint a guardian ad litem in your
case. This means that a neutral person will review your situation and report to the judge concerning
parenting issues. The purpose of such intervention is to be sure that the best interests of the
child(ren) is (are) being served. For more information, you may consult section 61.13, Florida
Statutes.

A parenting course must be completed prior to the entry of a final judgment. You should contact the
clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant about requirements for parenting courses where you
live.

Listed below are some terms with which you should become familiar before completing your answer
to the petition. If you do not fully understand any of the terms below or their implications, you
should speak with an attorney before going any further.

Child Support. Both parents are required to provide financial support for their minor or dependent
child(ren); however, the court may order one parent to pay child support to the other parent.
Florida has adopted guidelines for determining the amount of child support to be paid. These
guidelines are based on the combined income of both parents and take into account the financial
contributions of both parents and the number of overnights the child(ren) spend with each parent.
You must file a Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form
12.902(b) or (c), and your spouse will be required to do the same. From your financial affidavits, you
should be able to calculate the amount of child support that should be paid using the Child Support
Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e). Because the child
support guidelines take several factors into consideration, change over time, and vary from state to
state, your child support obligation may be more or less than that of other people in seemingly
similar situations.

Alimony. Alimony may be awarded to a spouse if the judge finds that one spouse has an actual
need for it and that the other spouse has the ability to pay. If you want alimony, you must request
it in writing in a counterpetition. Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.903(c)(1)
(with dependent or minor child(ren)), or Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.903(c)(2) (no dependent or minor child(ren)). If you do not request alimony in writing before
the final hearing, it is waived (you may not request it later). You may request permanent alimony,
bridge-the-gap alimony, durational alimony, and/or rehabilitative alimony. If alimony is awarded,
the judge may order periodic payments, payments in lump sum, or both.

Marital/Nonmarital Assets and Liabilities. Florida law requires an equitable distribution of marital
assets and marital liabilities. “Equitable” does not necessarily mean “equal.” Many factors,
including child support, any parenting plan and time-sharing schedule, and alimony awards, may
lead the court to make an unequal (but still equitable) distribution of assets and liabilities.
Nonmarital assets and nonmarital liabilities are those assets and liabilities which the parties agree
or the court determines belong to, or are the responsibility of, only one of the parties. If the parties
agree or the court finds an asset or liability to be nonmarital, the judge will not consider it when
distributing marital assets and liabilities.

Temporary Relief. If you need temporary relief regarding temporary use of assets, temporary
responsibility for liabilities, parental responsibility and time-sharing with child(ren), temporary child

support, or temporary alimony, you may file a Motion for Temporary Support and Time-Sharing
with Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(a),
or, if there are no dependent or minor child(ren), Motion for Temporary Support with No
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(c). For
more information, see the instructions for these forms.

Marital Settlement Agreement. If you and your spouse are able to reach an agreement on any or
all of the issues, you should file a Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(1), or
Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with No Dependent or Minor
Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(2). Both parties must sign
this agreement before a notary public or deputy clerk. Any issues on which you are unable to agree
will be considered contested and settled by the judge at the final hearing.

Final Judgment Form. These family law forms contain a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage
with Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.990(c)(1), and Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with Property but No Dependent or
Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.990(c)(2), which the judge
may use if your case is contested. If you and your spouse reach an agreement on all of the issues,
the judge may use Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent or Minor Child(ren)
(Uncontested), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.990(b)(1), Final Judgment of
Dissolution of Marriage with Property but No Dependent or Minor Child(ren) (Uncontested),
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.990(b)(2), or Final Judgment of Dissolution of
Marriage with No Property and No Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court
Approved Family Law Form 12.990(b)(3). You should contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or
judicial assistant to see if you need to bring a final judgment with you to the hearing. If so, you
should type or print the heading, including the circuit, county, case number, division, and the
parties’ names, and leave the rest blank for the judge to complete at your hearing or trial.

Nonlawyer. Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer
helps you fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer,
Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer
helping you fill out these forms also must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on

time, and vary from state to state, your child support obligation may be more or less than that of other
people in seemingly similar situations.

Alimony. Alimony may be awarded to a spouse if the judge finds that one spouse has an actual need for
it and that the other spouse has the ability to pay. If you want alimony, you must request it in writing in
your counterpetition. If you do not request alimony in writing before the final hearing, it is waived (you
may not request it later). You may request permanent alimony, bridge-the-gap alimony, durational
alimony, and/or rehabilitative alimony. If alimony is awarded, the judge may order periodic payments,
payments in lump sum, or both.

Marital/Nonmarital Assets and Liabilities. Florida law requires an equitable distribution of marital assets
and marital liabilities. Equitable does not necessarily mean equal. Many factors, including child support,
time-sharing and alimony awards, may lead the court to make an unequal (but still equitable) distribution
of assets and liabilities. Nonmarital assets and nonmarital liabilities are those assets and liabilities which
the parties agree or the court determines belong to, or are the responsibility of, only one of the parties.
If the parties agree or the court finds an asset or liability to be nonmarital, the judge will not consider it
when distributing marital assets and liabilities.

Parenting Plan. In all cases involving minor or dependent child(ren), a Parenting Plan shall be approved
or established by the court. If you and your spouse have reached an agreement, you should file a
Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(a), 12.995(b), or 12.995(c),
which addresses the time-sharing schedule for the child(ren). If you have not reached an agreement, a

proposed Parenting Plan may be filed. If you and your spouse cannot agree, a Parenting Plan will be
established by the court.

Temporary Relief. If you need temporary relief regarding temporary use of assets, temporary
responsibility for liabilities, parental responsibility and time-sharing with child(ren), temporary child
support, or temporary alimony, you may file a Motion for Temporary Support and Time-Sharing with
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(a). For more
information, see the instructions for that form.

Marital Settlement Agreement. If you and your spouse are able to reach an agreement on any or all of
the issues, you should file a Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent
or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(1). Both of you must
sign this agreement before a notary public or deputy clerk. Any issues on which you are unable to agree
will be considered contested and settled by the judge at the final hearing.

Final Judgment Form. These family law forms contain a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.990(c)(1), which
the judge may use if your case is contested. If you and your spouse reach an agreement on all of the issues,
the judge may use a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent or Minor Child(ren)
(Uncontested), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.990(b)(1). You should contact the
clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to see if you need to bring a final judgment with you to
the hearing. If so, you should type or print the heading, including the circuit, county, case number,
division, and the parties’ names, and leave the rest blank for the judge to complete at your hearing or
trial.

Nonlawyer. Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps you
fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida Family Law
Rules of Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you fill out these
forms also must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of the last page of
every form he or she helps you complete.

your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers. Some circuits may require the completion of
mediation before a final hearing may be set. You should contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or

               IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving
pleadings by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must review
Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link
to the Rules of Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules
of Court in the A-Z Topical Index.

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail, the
procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature appears. Please
CAREFULLY read the rules and instructions for: Certificate of Service (General), Florida Supreme Court

Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516.

                                              Special notes...

With this form, you must also file the following:

   Affidavit of Corroborating Witness, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(i) OR
    photocopy of current Florida driver’s license, Florida identification card, or voter’s registration card
    (issue date of copied document must be at least six months before date case is actually filed with
    the clerk of the circuit court).
   Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with No Dependent or Minor
    Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(2), if you have reached an
    agreement on any or all of the issues.
   Notice of Social Security Number, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(j).
   Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c). (This
    must be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on you, if not filed at the time you file this
    answer.)
   Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Disclosure, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form
    12.932. (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on you, if not filed at the time
    you file this answer, unless you and the other party have agreed not to exchange these documents.)

Alimony. Alimony may be awarded to one spouse if the judge finds that one spouse has an actual need
for it and also finds that the other spouse has the ability to pay. If you want alimony, you must request
it in writing in your counterpetition. If you do not request alimony in writing before the final hearing,
it is waived (you may not request it later). You may request permanent alimony, bridge-the-gap
alimony, durational alimony, and/or rehabilitative alimony. If alimony is awarded, the judge may order
periodic payments, payments in lump sum, or both.

Marital/Nonmarital Assets and Liabilities. Florida law requires an equitable distribution of marital
assets and marital liabilities. Equitable does not necessarily mean equal. Many factors, including
alimony awards, may lead the court to make an unequal (but still equitable) distribution of assets and
liabilities. Nonmarital assets and nonmarital liabilities are those assets and liabilities which the parties
agree or the court determines belong to, or are the responsibility of, only one of the parties. If the
parties agree or the court finds an asset or liability to be nonmarital, the judge will not consider it when
distributing marital assets and liabilities.

Temporary Relief. If you need temporary relief regarding temporary use of assets, temporary
responsibility for liabilities, or temporary alimony, you may file a Motion for Temporary Support with
No Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(c). For
more information, see the instructions for that form.

Marital Settlement Agreement. If you and your spouse are able to reach an agreement on any or all of
the issues, you should file a Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with No
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(2). Both of
you must sign this agreement before a notary public. Any issues on which you are unable to agree will
be considered contested and settled by the judge at the final hearing.

Final Judgment Forms. These family law forms contain a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage
with Property but No Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law
Form 12.990(c)(2), which the judge may use if your case is contested. If you and your spouse reach an
agreement on all of the issues, the judge may use a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with
Property but No Dependent or Minor Child(ren) (Uncontested), Florida Supreme Court Approved
Family Law Form 12.990(b)(2). You should contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant
to see if you need to bring a final judgment with you to the hearing. If so, you should type or print the
heading, including the circuit, county, case number, division, and the parties’ names, and leave the rest
blank for the judge to complete at your hearing or trial.

Nonlawyer. Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps you
fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida Family
Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you fill out
these forms also must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of the last
page of every form he or she helps you complete.

                          (02/18)

                                When should this form be used?

This form should be used when you are responding to a supplemental petition for modification of
Parenting Plan, time-sharing schedule, child support, or alimony. This form is used to admit or deny
all of the allegations in the supplemental petition if you do not plan to file a counterpetition. There
is no form for a counterpetition to a supplemental petition in these Family Law Forms. If you want to
file a counterpetition to a supplemental petition you will need to either seek legal assistance or create
a form yourself. You may construct an answer and counterpetition using the pertinent sections
contained in the Answer to Petition and Counterpetition for Dissolution of Marriage with
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.903(c)(1), or
Answer to Petition and Counterpetition for Dissolution of Marriage with Property but No
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.903(c)(2).

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign the
form before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit
court in the county where the case was filed and keep a copy for your records. This must be done
within 20 days of receiving the supplemental petition.

                    IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents
be filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or
other pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose
to file your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida
Rule of Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in
which you file. The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                                      What should I do next?

A copy of this form, along with all of the other forms required with this answer, must be mailed, e-
mailed, or hand delivered to the other party in your case. Regardless of whether you file a
counterpetition, you have 20 days to answer after being served with the other party’s supplemental
petition. After you file your answer, the case will generally proceed in one of the following two ways:

                                                - 131 -
UNCONTESTED. If you file an answer that agrees with everything in the other party’s supplemental
petition and you have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers, either
party may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a final hearing. If you
request the hearing, you must notify the other party of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing
(General), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of
hearing form.

CONTESTED. If you file an answer which disagrees with or denies anything in the supplemental
petition, and you are unable to settle the disputed issues, either party may file a Notice for Trial,
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.924, after you have complied with mandatory
disclosure and filed all of the required papers. Some circuits may require the completion of mediation
before a final hearing may be set. If you request the hearing, you should contact the clerk, family law
intake staff, or judicial assistant for instructions on how to set your case for trial (final hearing).

                           Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read “General Information for Self-Represented Litigants” found at
the beginning of these forms. The words that are in “bold underline” in these instructions are defined
there. See chapter 61, Florida Statutes, for more information.

            IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required
or permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in
certain circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules
of Judicial Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or
receiving pleadings by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must
review Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org
through the link to the Rules of Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms:
Getting Started, or Rules of Court in the A-Z Topical Index.

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail,
the procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law
Form 12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature
appears. Please CAREFULLY read the rules and instructions for: Certificate of Service (General),

                                           Special notes...

With this form, you may also need to file the following:

       Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) Affidavit, Florida
        Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(d), if the case involves child(ren).
       Child Support Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e),
        if child support is an issue. (If you do not know the other party=s income, you may file this
        worksheet after his or her financial affidavit has been served on you.)
       Settlement Agreement, if you have reached an agreement on any or all of the issues.
        Although there is no form for this in these Florida Family Law Forms, you may construct a
        settlement agreement using the pertinent sections contained in Marital Settlement
        Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida
        Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(1), or Marital Settlement Agreement
        for Dissolution of Marriage with [Property but] No Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida
        Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(2).
       Notice of Social Security Number, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
        12.902(j), if not previously filed.
       Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c).
        (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the supplemental petition on you, if not filed
        at the time you file your answer.)
       Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Disclosure, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure
        Form 12.932. (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the supplemental petition on
        you, if not filed at the time of you file your answer, unless you and the other party have agreed
        not to exchange these documents.)

Parenting and Time-Sharing. If you and the other party are unable to agree on parenting
arrangements and a time-sharing schedule, a judge will decide for you as part of establishing a
Parenting Plan. The judge will decide the parenting arrangements and time-sharing schedule based
on the child(ren)’s best interests. Regardless of whether there is an agreement, the court reserves
jurisdiction to modify issues relating to the minor child(ren).

The judge may request a parenting plan recommendation or appoint a guardian ad litem in your case.
This means that a neutral person will review your situation and report to the judge concerning parenting
issues. The purpose of such intervention is to be sure that the best interests of the child(ren) is (are)
being served. For more information, you may consult section 61.13, Florida Statutes. A parenting
course may be required prior to entry of a final judgment. You should contact the clerk, family law
intake staff, or judicial assistant about requirements for parenting courses or mediation where you live.

Listed below are some terms with which you should become familiar before completing your

you should speak with an attorney before going any further.

Child Support. Both parents are required to provide financial support for their minor or dependent
children; however, the court may order one parent to pay child support to the other parent. Florida
has adopted guidelines for determining the amount of child support to be paid. These guidelines are
based on the combined income of both parents and take into account the financial contributions of
both parents and the number of overnights the child(ren) spend with each parent. You must file a
Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c), and the
other parent will be required to do the same. From your financial affidavits, you should be able to
calculate the amount of child support that should be paid using the Child Support Guidelines
Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e). Because the child support
guidelines take several factors into consideration, change over time, and vary from state to state, your
child support obligation may be more or less than that of other people in seemingly similar situations.

Temporary Relief. If you need temporary relief regarding parental responsibility and time-sharing
with child(ren), child support or alimony, you may file a Motion for Temporary Support with
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(a) or, if
you need temporary relief regarding alimony and there are no dependent or minor child(ren), you
may file a Motion for Temporary Support with No Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(c). For more information, see the instructions for these
forms.

Settlement Agreement. If you and the other party are able to reach an agreement on any or all of
the issues, you should file a Settlement Agreement. Although there is no form for this in these Florida
Family Law Forms, you may construct a settlement agreement using the pertinent sections contained
in Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent or Minor Child(ren),
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(1), or Marital Settlement Agreement for
Dissolution of Marriage with No Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved
Family Law Form 12.902(f)(2). Both parties must sign this agreement before a notary public or deputy
clerk. Any issues on which you are unable to agree will be considered contested and settled by the
judge at the final hearing.

Final Judgment Forms. These family law forms contain a Supplemental Final Judgment Modifying

the judge may use, as appropriate. You should contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial
assistant to see if you need to bring a final judgment with you to the hearing. If so, you should type
or print the heading, including the circuit, county, case number, division, and the parties’ names, and
leave the rest blank for the judge to complete at your hearing or trial.

Nonlawyer. Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps
you fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida
Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you
fill out these forms also must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of
the last page of every form he or she helps you complete.

          INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED
                     FAMILY LAW FORM 12.904(a)(1),
        PETITION FOR SUPPORT UNCONNECTED WITH DISSOLUTION OF
            MARRIAGE WITH DEPENDENT OR MINOR CHILD(REN)
                               (02/18)

                                     When should this form be used?

        This form may be used to ask the court to enter a support order if your spouse has the ability
        to contribute to you and your minor child(ren), but has failed to do so. You can only use this
        form if a dissolution of marriage has not been filed and based upon the time-sharing
        schedule, you are entitled to support. If a petition for dissolution of marriage has been filed,
        you should file a Motion for Temporary Support and Time-Sharing with Dependent or Minor
        Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(a), instead of using this
        petition. Also, if you are requesting that an order be entered for you to pay support to your
        spouse, you should not file this form.

        This petition cannot address the issues of property, debts, or parental responsibility and time-
        sharing with child(ren). It only deals with alimony and child support.

        This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign
        the form before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of
        the circuit court in the county where you live and keep a copy for your records. Because you
        are filing this petition, you are also referred to as the petitioner and your spouse as the
        respondent.

                         IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

        The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and
        documents be filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants
        may file petitions or other pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not
        required to do so. If you choose to file your pleadings or other documents electronically, you
        must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must
        follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file. The rules and procedures should
        be carefully read and followed.

                                           What should I do next?

        For your case to proceed, you must properly notify your spouse of the petition. Because this
        petition concerns child support and alimony, you should use personal service. If your spouse
        is in the military service of the United States, additional steps for service may be required. See
        Memorandum for Certificate of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family
        Law Form 12.912(a) and Affidavit of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family
        Law Form 12.912(b). Service on a spouse who is in the military can be complicated; therefore,
        you may wish to consult an attorney regarding this issue.

        Your spouse has 20 days to answer after being served with your petition. Your case will then
        generally proceed in one of the following three ways:

        DEFAULT. If after 20 days, no answer has been filed, you may file a Motion for Default, Florida
        Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.922(a), with the clerk of court. Then, if you
        have filed all of the required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or
        judicial assistant to set a final hearing. You must notify your spouse of the hearing by using
        a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or
        other appropriate notice of hearing form.

        UNCONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer that agrees with everything in your petition or
        an answer and waiver, and you have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the
        required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set
        a final hearing. You must notify your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing
        (General), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate
        notice of hearing form.

        CONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer or an answer and counterpetition, which
        disagrees with or denies anything in your petition, and you are unable to settle the disputed
        issues, you should file a Notice for Trial, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
        12.924, after you have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required
        papers. Some circuits may require the completion of mediation before a final hearing may be
        set. Then you should contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant for
        instructions on how to set your case for trial (final hearing). If your spouse files an answer
        and counterpetition, you should answer the counterpetition within 20 days using an Answer
        to Counterpetition, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.903(d).

                                Where can I look for more information?

        Before proceeding, you should read “General Information for Self-Represented Litigants”
        found at the beginning of these forms. The words that are in bold underline in these
        instructions are defined there. For further information, see section 61.09, Florida Statutes.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law
Form 12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature
appears. Please CAREFULLY read the rules and instructions for: Certificate of Service (General),

Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial
Administration 2.516.

                                           Special notes...

If you do not have the money to pay the filing fee, you may obtain an Application for Determination
of Civil Indigent Status from the clerk, fill it out, and the clerk will determine whether you are eligible
to have filing fees deferred.

With this form you must also file the following:

       Notice of Social Security Number, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
        12.902(j).
       Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) Affidavit, Florida
        Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(d), if the case involves minor or dependent
        child(ren).
       Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c).
       Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Disclosure, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure
        Form 12.932. (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on the respondent,
        if not filed at the time of the petition, unless you and the other party have agreed not to
        exchange these documents.)
       Child Support Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e),
        if you are asking that child support be ordered in the final judgment. (If you do not know your

Unconnected with Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent or Minor Children (02/18)

        spouse’s income, you may file this worksheet after your spouse’s financial affidavit has been
        served on you.)

Alimony. Alimony may be awarded to a spouse if the judge finds that one spouse has an actual need
for it and that the other spouse has the ability to pay. If you want alimony, you must request it in
writing in the original petition. If you do not request alimony in writing before the final hearing, it
is waived (you may not request it later). You may request permanent alimony, bridge-the-gap
alimony, durational alimony, and/or rehabilitative alimony. If alimony is awarded, the judge may
order periodic payments, payments in lump sum, or both.

Child Support. Both parents are required to provide financial support for their minor or
dependent children; however, the court may order one parent to pay child support to the other
parent. Florida has adopted guidelines for determining the amount of child support to be paid.
These guidelines are based on the combined income of both parents and take into account the
financial contributions of both parents and the number of overnights the child(ren) spend with each
parent. You must file a Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form
12.902(b) or (c), and your spouse will be required to do the same. From your financial affidavits, you
should be able to calculate the amount of child support that should be paid using the Child Support
Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e). Because the child
support guidelines take several factors into consideration, change over time, and vary from state to
state, your child support obligation may be more or less than that of other people in seemingly
similar situations.

Temporary Relief. If you need temporary relief regarding child support or temporary alimony, you
may file a Motion for Temporary Support and Time-Sharing with Dependent or Minor Child(ren),
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(a). For more information, see the
instructions for that form.

Final Judgment Forms. These family law forms contain a Final Judgment of Support Unconnected
with Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved
Family Law Form 12.994(a), which the judge may use if your case is contested. You should check with
the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to see if you need to bring a final judgment with
you to the hearing. If so, you should type or print the heading, including the circuit, county, case
number, division, and the parties’ names, and leave the rest blank for the judge to complete at your
hearing or trial.

Nonlawyer. Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps
you fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida
Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you
fill out these forms also must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of
the last page of every form he or she helps you complete.

          PETITION FOR SUPPORT AND PARENTING PLAN UNCONNECTED

                               CHILD(REN)
                                 (02/18)

                                       When should this form be used?

        This form may be used to ask the court to enter a support order if your spouse has the ability to
        contribute to you and your minor child(ren), but has failed to do so. It may also be used to
        establish a Parenting Plan with a time-sharing schedule. You can only use this form if a dissolution
        of marriage has not been filed and based upon the time-sharing schedule, you are entitled to
        support. If a petition for dissolution of marriage has been filed, you should file a Motion for
        Temporary Support and Time-Sharing with Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme
        Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(a), instead of using this petition. Also, if you are
        requesting that an order be entered for you to pay support to your spouse, you should not file
        this form.

        This petition cannot address the issues of property or debts. It only deals with alimony, child
        support, and Parenting Plans.

        This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign the
        form before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the
        circuit court in the county where you live and keep a copy for your records. Because you are filing
        this petition, you are also referred to as the petitioner and your spouse as the respondent.

                           IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

        The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and
        documents be filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may
        file petitions or other pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to
        do so. If you choose to file your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in
        accordance with Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures
        of the judicial circuit in which you file. The rules and procedures should be carefully read and
        followed.

                                             What should I do next?

        For your case to proceed, you must properly notify your spouse of the petition. Because this
        petition concerns child support and alimony, you should use personal service. If your spouse is
        in the military service of the United States, additional steps for service may be required. See
        Memorandum for Certificate of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law
Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.904(a)(2), Petition for Support and Parenting
Plan Unconnected with Dissolution of Marriage (02/18)
                                                   - 147 -
        Form 12.912(a) and Affidavit of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law
        Form 12.912(b). Service on a spouse who is in the military can be complicated; therefore, you may
        wish to consult an attorney regarding this issue.

        Your spouse has 20 days to answer after being served with your petition. Your case will then
        generally proceed in one of the following three ways:

        DEFAULT. If after 20 days, no answer has been filed, you may file a Motion for Default, Florida
        Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.922(a), with the clerk of court. Then, if you have
        filed all of the required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial
        assistant to set a final hearing. You must notify your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of
        Hearing (General), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other
        appropriate notice of hearing form.

        UNCONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer that agrees with everything in your petition or an
        answer and waiver, and you have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the
        required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a
        final hearing. You must notify your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General),
        Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing
        form.

        CONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer or an answer and counterpetition, which disagrees
        with or denies anything in your petition, and you are unable to settle the disputed issues, you
        should file a Notice for Trial, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.924, after you
        have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers. Some circuits may
        require the completion of mediation before a final hearing may be set. Then you should contact
        the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant for instructions on how to set your case for
        trial (final hearing). If your spouse files an answer and counterpetition, you should answer the
        counterpetition within 20 days using an Answer to Counterpetition, Florida Supreme Court
        Approved Family Law Form 12.903(d).

                                  Where can I look for more information?

        Before proceeding, you should read “General Information for Self-Represented Litigants” found
        at the beginning of these forms. The words that are in bold underline in these instructions are
        defined there. For further information, see section 61.09, Florida Statutes.

                   IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

        After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or
        certified process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all
        documents required or permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic
        mail (e-mail) except in certain circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format
        requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial Administration. If you elect to participate in
        electronic service, which means serving or receiving pleadings by electronic mail (e-mail), or

         Alimony. Alimony may be awarded to a spouse if the judge finds that one spouse has an actual
         need for it and that the other spouse has the ability to pay. If you want alimony, you must
         request it in writing in the original petition. If you do not request alimony in writing before the
         final hearing, it is waived (you may not request it later). You may request permanent alimony,
         bridge-the-gap alimony, durational alimony, and/or rehabilitative alimony. If alimony is
         awarded, the judge may order periodic payments, payments in lump sum, or both.

        Child Support. Both parents are required to provide financial support for their minor or
        dependent children; however, the court may order one parent to pay child support to the other
        parent. Florida has adopted guidelines for determining the amount of child support to be paid.
        These guidelines are based on the combined income of both parents and take into account the
        financial contributions of both parents and the number of overnights the child(ren) spend with
        each parent. You must file a Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure
        Form 12.902(b) or (c), and your spouse will be required to do the same. From your financial
        affidavits, you should be able to calculate the amount of child support that should be paid using
        the Child Support Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e).
        Because the child support guidelines take several factors into consideration, change over time,
        and vary from state to state, your child support obligation may be more or less than that of other
        people in seemingly similar situations.

        Parenting Plan and Time-Sharing. If you and your spouse are unable to agree on parenting
        arrangements and a time-sharing schedule, a judge will decide for you as part of establishing a
        Parenting Plan. The judge will decide the parenting arrangements and time-sharing based on the
        child(ren)’s best interests. Regardless of whether there is an agreement, the court reserves
        jurisdiction to modify issues relating to the minor child(ren).

        The judge may request a parenting plan recommendation or appoint a guardian ad litem in your
        case. This means that a neutral person will review your situation and report to the judge
        concerning parenting issues. The purpose of such intervention is to be sure that the best interests
        of the child(ren) is (are) being served. For more information, you may consult section 61.13,
        Florida Statutes.

        A parenting course must be completed prior to entry of the final judgment. You should contact
        the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant about requirements for parenting courses
        where you live.

        Listed below are some terms with which you should become familiar before completing your
        petition. If you do not fully understand any of the terms below or their implications, you should
        speak with an attorney before going any further.

        Approved Family Law Form 12.994(a), which the judge may use if your case is contested. You
        should check with the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to see if you need to bring
        a final judgment with you to the hearing. If so, you should type or print the heading, including
        the circuit, county, case number, division, and the parties’ names, and leave the rest blank for the
        judge to complete at your hearing or trial.

        helps you fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer,

        on the bottom of the last page of every form he or she helps you complete.

                           (02/18)

                                  When should this form be used?

This form may be used if a dissolution of marriage has not been filed, and you are requesting alimony. If
a petition for dissolution has been filed, you should file a Motion for Temporary Support with No
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(c), instead of
using this petition. Also, if you are requesting that an order be entered for you to pay support to your
spouse, you should not file this form.

This petition does not address the issues of property or debts. It only deals with alimony.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign the form
before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in
the county where you live and keep a copy for your records. Because you are filing the petition in this
proceeding, you are referred to as the petitioner and your spouse as the respondent.

                         IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                                        What should I do next?

For your case to proceed, you must properly notify your spouse of the petition. Because this petition
concerns alimony, you should use personal service. If your spouse is in the military service of the
United States, additional steps for service may be required. See, for example, Memorandum for
Certificate of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.912(a) and
Affidavit of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.912(b). Service on a
spouse who is in the military can be complicated; therefore, you may wish to consult an attorney
regarding this issue.

Your spouse has 20 days to answer after being served with your petition. Your case will then generally
proceed in one of the following three ways:

Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.904(b), Petition for Support Unconnected
with Dissolution of Marriage with No Dependent or Minor Child(ren) (02/18)
                                                  - 158 -
DEFAULT. If after 20 days, no answer has been filed, you may file a Motion for Default, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.922(a), with the clerk of court. Then, if you have filed all of the
required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a final
hearing. You must notify your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

UNCONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer that agrees with everything in your petition or an answer
and waiver, and you have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers, you
may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a final hearing. You must notify
your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida Supreme Court Approved
Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

CONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer or an answer and counterpetition, which disagrees with or
denies anything in your petition, and you are unable to settle the disputed issues, you should file a
Notice for Trial, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.924, after you have complied with
mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers. Some circuits may require the completion of
mediation before a final hearing may be set. Then you should contact the clerk, family law intake staff,
or judicial assistant for instructions on how to set your case for trial (final hearing). If your spouse files
an answer and counterpetition, you should answer the counterpetition within 20 days using an Answer
to Counterpetition, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.903(d).

                             Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read General Information for Self-Represented Litigants found at the
beginning of these forms. The words that are in bold underline in these instructions are defined there.
For further information, see section 61.09, Florida Statutes.

                 IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving
pleadings by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must review Florida
Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link to the
Rules of Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules of Court
in the A-Z Topical Index.

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail, the
procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature appears. Please

                                             Special notes...

If you do not have the money to pay the filing fee, you may obtain an Application for Determination of
Civil Indigent Status from the clerk, fill it out, and the clerk will determine whether you are eligible to
have filing fees deferred.

With this form you must also file the following:

   Notice of Social Security Number, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(j).
   Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c). (This
    must be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on the respondent, if not filed at the time of
    the petition.)
   Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Disclosure, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form
    12.932. (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on the respondent, if not filed at
    the time of the petition, unless you and the other party have agreed not to exchange these
    documents.)

Alimony. Alimony may be awarded to a spouse if the judge finds that one spouse has an actual need for
it and that the other spouse has the ability to pay. If you want alimony, you must request it in writing
in the original petition. If you do not request alimony in writing before the final hearing, it is waived
(you may not request it later). You may request permanent alimony, bridge-the-gap alimony,
durational alimony, and/or rehabilitative alimony. If alimony is awarded, the judge may order periodic
payments, payments in lump sum, or both.

Temporary Relief. If you need temporary relief regarding alimony, you may file a Motion for Temporary
Support with No Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.947(c). For more information, see the instructions for that form.

Final Judgment Forms. These family law forms contain a Final Judgment of Support Unconnected with
Dissolution of Marriage with No Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved
Family Law Form 12.994(b), which the judge may use if your case is contested. You should check with
the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to see if you need to bring a final judgment with
you to the hearing. If so, you should type or print the heading, including the circuit, county, case
number, division, and the parties’ names, and leave the rest blank for the judge to complete at your
hearing or trial.

Nonlawyer. Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps you
fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida Family
Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you fill out
these forms also must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of the last
page of every form he or she helps you complete.

                   LAW FORM 12.950(a)
    AGREEMENT FOR RELOCATION WITH MINOR CHILD(REN)
                        (02/18)

                              When should this form be used?

This form should be used when the parents and every other person entitled to access to,
visitation, or time-sharing with the minor child(ren) are in agreement and are asking the court to
permit the relocation of the child(ren)’s principal residence. “Other Person” means an individual
who is not the parent, but with whom the child resides pursuant to court order, or who has the
right of access to, time-sharing with, or visitation with the child(ren). This form can be used at any
time after either a petition or supplemental petition to relocate has been filed and the parties
reach an agreement; OR can be used when the parties are in agreement and there is an existing
cause of action, judgment, or decree of record pertaining to the child(ren)’s residence or time-
sharing schedule. Either an agreement for relocation or a petition to relocate is required when:

1. You plan to relocate the child(ren)’s residence more than 50 miles from the child(ren)’s
   principal residence at the time of the last order which established or modified either a
   Parenting Plan or time-sharing schedule or at the time of filing of the pending action.

2. The court has not already entered an order granting permission to relocate.

3. The relocation will be for a period of 60 consecutive days or more, not including any absence
   for purposes of vacation, education, or health care for the child(ren).

4. Your order or final judgment defining custody, primary residence, the Parenting Plan, or time-
   sharing was entered before October 1, 2009 and the order does not expressly govern the
   relocation of the child(ren); or was entered on or after October 1, 2009, or your case was
   pending on October 1, 2009.

5. If the visitation or time-sharing schedule will change due to the relocation, a Parenting Plan
   with a time-sharing schedule must be included with the Agreement. Regardless of whether
   there is an agreement, the court reserves jurisdiction to modify issues relating to the minor
   child(ren).

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. You must fill in all sections of the form. If you
are an “other person” entitled to access, visitation, or time-sharing with the child(ren), substitute
your name for a Parent in the form and “parties” for “parents.” After completing the form, you
should sign the form before a notary public or deputy clerk.

                  IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and
documents be filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may

with Minor Child(ren) (02/18)
                                              - 183 -
file petitions or other pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to
do so. If you choose to file your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in
accordance with Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures
of the judicial circuit in which you file. The rules and procedures should be carefully read and
followed.
                                    What should I do next?

For your case to proceed, you must properly notify the court by filing the original of the
Agreement and a Motion for Order Permitting Relocation by Agreement, Florida Supreme Court
Approved Family Law Form, 12.950 (b), with the clerk of the circuit court of one of the following:
the circuit court which has jurisdiction in accordance with the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction
and Enforcement Act; the circuit court in the county in which either parent and the child(ren)
reside; or the circuit court in which the original action was adjudicated. If the order was entered
in another state, or if the child(ren) live(s) in another state, you should speak with an attorney
about where to file this form. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court and
keep a copy for your records.

If the issue of the child(ren)’s physical residence is already before the court in an ongoing
proceeding or through a judgment issued by the court, the court may enter an order adopting the
Agreement without holding a hearing once both parties have signed it and neither has requested
a hearing. When a hearing is not timely requested, the court shall presume that relocation is in
the best interest of the child(ren) and may adopt the Agreement without holding a hearing.

 If one or more of the parties to the Agreement timely requests a hearing in writing within 10 days
after the date the Agreement is filed with the court, then you must notify the other party(ies) of
the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law
Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form. The court will then enter an order after
the hearing.

at the beginning of these forms. The words that are in “bold underline” in these instructions are
defined there. For further information, see chapter 61, Florida Statutes.

If your case involves a modification of any provision relating to child support, you should also
check with the clerk of the circuit court in the county in which you are filing this Agreement for
Relocation to determine if any other forms must be filed.

If the parties agree to a modification of child support, the following forms should be filed with this
Agreement:

   A Child Support Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e),
   A completed Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form

                                         Special notes...

The Agreement for Relocation with Minor Children must contain a Parenting Plan with a time-
sharing schedule. At a minimum, the Parenting Plan must describe in adequate detail:
 How the parties will share and be responsible for the daily tasks associated with the
    upbringing of the child(ren),
 The time-sharing schedule that specifies the time that the minor child(ren) will spend with
    each parent and every other person entitled to access or time-sharing,
 A designation of who will be responsible for any and all forms of health care, school-related
    matters, including the address to be used for school-boundary determination and
    registration, and any other activities,
 The methods and technologies that the parents will use to communicate with the child(ren),
    and
 Any transportation arrangements related to access or time-sharing.

The best interests of the child(ren) is the primary consideration in the Parenting Plan. In creating
the Parenting Plan, all circumstances between the parties, including the parties’ historic
relationship, domestic violence, and other factors must be taken into consideration.
Determination of the best interests of the child(ren) shall be made by evaluating all of the
Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.950(a), Agreement for Relocation
with Minor Child(ren) (02/18)
                                              - 185 -
factors affecting the welfare and interest of the particular minor child(ren) and the
circumstances of the family as listed in s. 61.13(3), Florida Statutes.

This standard form does not include every possible issue that may be relevant to the facts of
your case. The Parenting Plan should be as detailed as possible to address the time-sharing
schedule. Additional provisions should be added to address all of the relevant factors. The
parties should give special consideration to the age and needs of each child.

The Parenting Plan and time-sharing schedule may be set forth in the body of the Agreement for
Relocation with Minor Children or may be attached as a separate document. You may attach a
Relocation/Long-Distance Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.995(c), or similar form.

In developing the Parenting Plan, you may wish to consult or review other materials which are
available at your local library, law library or through national and state family organizations.

                                        What should I do next?
After completing this form, you should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court where there is
an existing cause of action, judgment, or decree of record pertaining to the child(ren)’s residence or
time-sharing schedule and keep a copy for your records. The original Agreement for Relocation with
Minor Child(ren) should be attached to Motion or filed with the clerk of the circuit court at the same
time.

If both parties agree, the court may ratify the Agreement without the necessity of an evidentiary
hearing. You should check with the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant for the proper way

the parties to the Agreement timely requests a hearing in writing within 10 days after the date the
Agreement is filed with the court, then you must notify the other party(ies) of the hearing by using a
Notice of Hearing (General), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other
appropriate notice of hearing form. The court will then enter an order after hearing. If a hearing is not
timely requested, the court shall presume that relocation is in the best interest of the child(ren) and may
ratify the Agreement without an evidentiary hearing

                               Where can I look for more information?

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
                        FORM 12.950(c),
   PETITION FOR DISSOLUTION OF MARRIAGE WITH DEPENDENT OR
               MINOR CHILD(REN) AND RELOCATION
                            (02/18)

                                   When should this form be used?

This form should be used when you are filing for dissolution of marriage, there are dependent or minor
children, and pursuant to Section 61.13001, Florida Statutes:

    1. You plan to relocate your residence more than 50 miles from the principal place of residence you
       have at the time of filing this petition; and

    2. The change of location is for at least 60 consecutive days, not including a temporary absence from
       your principal place of residence for purposes of vacation, education or the provision of health
       care for the minor child(ren).

You or your spouse must have lived in Florida for at least 6 months before filing for dissolution of marriage
in Florida.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign the form
before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in
the county where you live and keep a copy for your records.

                       IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

               IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving pleadings
by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must review Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link to the Rules of
Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules of Court in the
A-Z Topical Index.

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail, the
procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature appears. Please
CAREFULLY read the rules and instructions for: Certificate of Service (General), Florida Supreme Court
Approved Family Law Form 12.914; Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516.

                                         What should I do next?

For your case to proceed, you must properly notify your spouse and every other person entitled to access
or time-sharing with the child(ren) of the petition. “Other Person” means an individual who is not the
parent but with whom the child resides pursuant to court order, or who has the right of access to, time-
sharing with, or visitation with the child(ren). If you know where your spouse lives, you should use
personal service. If you absolutely do not know where your spouse lives, you may use constructive
service. You may also be able to use constructive service if your spouse or the other person resides in
another state or country. However, if constructive service is used, other than granting a divorce, the court
may only grant limited relief. For more information on constructive service, see Notice of Action for
Dissolution of Marriage, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.913(a), and Affidavit of
Diligent Search and Inquiry, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.913(b). If your spouse is in
the military service of the United States, additional steps for service may be required. See, for example,
Memorandum for Certificate of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.912(a). In sum, the law regarding constructive service and service on an individual in the military service
is very complex and you may wish to consult an attorney regarding these issues.

If personal service is used, the respondent has 20 days to answer after being served with your petition.
Your case will then generally proceed in one of the following three ways:

DEFAULT. If after 20 days, your spouse has not filed an answer, you may file a Motion for Default, Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.922(a), with the clerk of court. Then, if you have filed all
of the required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a
final hearing. You must notify your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

UNCONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer that agrees with everything in your petition or an answer
and waiver, and you have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers, you
may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a final hearing. You must notify
your spouse of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida Supreme Court Approved
Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

CONTESTED. If your spouse files an answer or an answer and counterpetition, which disagrees with or
denies anything in your petition, and you are unable to settle the disputed issues, you should file a Notice
for Trial, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.924, after you have complied with
mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers. Some circuits may require the completion of
Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.950(c) Petition for Dissolution of Marriage
with Dependent or Minor Child(ren) and Relocation (02/18)
                                                    - 211 -
mediation before a final hearing may be set. You should contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or
judicial assistant for instructions on how to set your case for trial (final hearing). If your spouse files an
answer and counterpetition, you should answer the counterpetition within 20 days using an Answer to
Counterpetition, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.903(d).

                              Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read “General Information for Self-Represented Litigants” found at the
beginning of these forms. The words that are in “bold underline” in these instructions are defined there.
For further information, see chapter 61, Florida Statutes.

                                              Special notes...

If you do not have the money to pay the filing fee, you may obtain an Application for Determination of
Civil Indigent Status from the clerk, fill it out, and the clerk will determine whether you are eligible to have
filing fees deferred.

If you want to keep your address confidential because you are the victim of sexual battery, aggravated
child abuse, aggravated stalking, harassment, aggravated battery, or domestic violence, do not enter the
address, telephone, and fax information at the bottom of this form. Instead, file a Request for
Confidential Filing of Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.980(h).

With this form, you must also file the following:

   Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) Affidavit, Florida Supreme Court
    Approved Family Law Form 12.902(d).
   Child Support Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e), if you
    are asking that child support be ordered in the final judgment. (If you do not know your spouse’s
    income, you may file this worksheet after his or her financial affidavit has been served on you.)
   Affidavit of Corroborating Witness, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(i) OR
    photocopy of current Florida driver’s license, Florida identification card, or voter’s registration card
    (issue date of copied document must be at least six months before date case is actually filed with the
    clerk of the circuit court).
   Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent or Minor Child(ren),
    Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(1), if you and your spouse have reached
    an agreement on any or all of the issues.
   Notice of Social Security Number, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(j).
   Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c). (This
    must be filed with the petition if the petitioner seeks to establish child support. Otherwise, it must
    be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on the respondent.)
   Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Disclosure, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form
    12.932. (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the petition on the respondent, if not filed at
    the time of the petition, unless you and your spouse have agreed not to exchange these documents.)
   Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(a), Safety-Focused
    Parenting Plan, Form 12.995(b), or Relocation/Long-Distance Parenting Plan, Form 12.995(c). If the

    parents have reached an agreement, a signed and notarized Parenting Plan should be attached. If
    the parents have not reached an agreement, a proposed Parenting Plan may be filed.

Updating Information. A parent or other person seeking to relocate has a continuing duty to provide
current and updated information required by the relocation statute when that information becomes
known.

Parenting Plan and Time-Sharing. If you and your spouse are unable to agree on parenting arrangements
and a time-sharing schedule, a judge will decide for you as part of establishing a Parenting Plan. The judge
will decide the parenting arrangements and time-sharing based on the child(ren)’s best interests.
Regardless of whether there is an agreement, the court reserves jurisdiction to modify issues relating to
the minor child(ren).

The judge may request a parenting plan recommendation or appoint a guardian ad litem in your case.
This means that a neutral person will review your situation and report to the judge concerning parenting
issues. The purpose of such intervention is to be sure that the best interests of the child(ren) is (are) being
served. For more information, you may consult section 61.13, Florida Statutes.

A parenting course must be completed prior to entry of the final judgment. You should contact the clerk,
family law intake staff, or judicial assistant about requirements for parenting courses where you live.

Listed below are some terms with which you should become familiar before completing your petition. If
you do not fully understand any of the terms below or their implications, you should speak with an
attorney before going any further.

   Shared Parental Responsibility
   Sole Parental Responsibility
   Supervised Time-Sharing
   No contact
   Parenting Plan
   Parenting Plan Recommendation
   Time-Sharing Schedule

Child Support. Both parents are required to provide financial support for their minor or dependent
child(ren); however, the court may order one parent to pay child support to the other parent. Florida has
adopted guidelines for determining the amount of child support to be paid. These guidelines are based
on the combined income of both parents and take into account the financial contributions of both parents
and the number of overnights the child(ren) spend with each parent. You must file a Family Law Financial
Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c), and your spouse will be required
to do the same. From your financial affidavits, you should be able to calculate the amount of child support
that should be paid using the Child Support Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure
Form 12.902(e). Because the child support guidelines take several factors into consideration, change over
time, and vary from state to state, your child support obligation may be more or less than that of other
people in seemingly similar situations.

Alimony. Alimony may be awarded to a spouse if the judge finds that one spouse has an actual need for
it and that the other spouse has the ability to pay. If you want alimony, you must request it in writing in
Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.950(c) Petition for Dissolution of Marriage
with Dependent or Minor Child(ren) and Relocation (02/18)
                                                    - 213 -
the original petition. If you do not request alimony in writing before the final hearing, it is waived (you
may not request it later). You may request permanent alimony, bridge-the-gap alimony, durational
alimony, and/or rehabilitative alimony. If alimony is awarded, the judge may order periodic payments,
payments in lump sum, or both.

Marital/Nonmarital Assets and Liabilities. Florida law requires an equitable distribution of marital
assets and marital liabilities. “Equitable” does not necessarily mean “equal.” Many factors, including
child support, time-sharing, and alimony awards, may lead the court to make an unequal (but still
equitable) distribution of assets and liabilities. Nonmarital assets and nonmarital liabilities are those
assets and liabilities which the parties agree or the court determines belong to, or are the responsibility
of, only one of the parties. If the parties agree or the court finds an asset or liability to be nonmarital, the
judge will not consider it when distributing marital assets and liabilities.

Temporary Relief. If you need temporary relief regarding temporary use of assets, temporary
responsibility for liabilities, parental responsibility, relocation and time-sharing with child(ren), temporary
child support, or temporary alimony, you may file a Motion for Temporary Support and Time-Sharing
with Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.947(a) and a
Motion for Temporary Relocation, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law From 12.950(e). For
more information, see the instructions for those forms.

Marital Settlement Agreement. If you and your spouse are able to reach an agreement on any or all of
the issues, you should file a Marital Settlement Agreement for Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent
or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(f)(1). Both of you must
sign this agreement before a notary public or deputy clerk. Any issues on which you are unable to agree
will be considered contested and settled by the judge at the final hearing.

Parenting Plan. In all cases involving minor or dependent child(ren), a Parenting Plan shall be approved
or established by the court. As you are seeking to relocate, the Parenting Plan must include a post-
relocation schedule for access and time-sharing together with the necessary transportation
arrangements. If you and your spouse have reached an agreement, you should file a Parenting Plan,
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(a), a Safety-Focused Parenting Plan, Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(b), or a Relocation/Long-Distance Parenting Plan,
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(c), which addresses the time-sharing schedule
for the child(ren). If you have not reached an agreement, a proposed Parenting Plan may be filed. If the
parties are unable to agree, a Parenting Plan will be established by the court.

Final Judgment Form. These family law forms contain a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with
Dependent or Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.990(c)(1), which
the judge may use if your case is contested. If you and your spouse reach an agreement on all of the issues,
the judge may use a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage with Dependent or Minor Child(ren)
(Uncontested), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.990(b)(1). You should check with
the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to see if you need to bring a final judgment with you
to the hearing. If so, you should type or print the heading, including the circuit, county, case number,
division, and the parties’ names, and leave the rest blank for the judge to complete at your hearing or
trial.

   child(ren); was entered on or after October 1, 2006; or your case was pending on October 1, 2009.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. You must fill in all sections of the form. After completing

                       IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

               IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain

Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.950(d), Supplemental Petition to Permit
Relocation with Minor or Dependent Child(ren) (02/18)

circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving pleadings
by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must review Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link to the Rules of
Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules of Court in the

                                        What should I do next?

For your case to proceed, you must properly notify the other parent and every other person entitled to,
access, time-sharing, or visitation with the child(ren) in your case of the supplemental petition. “Other
Person” means an individual who is not the parent but with whom the child resides pursuant to court
order, or who has the right of access to, time-sharing with, or visitation with the child(ren). If you know
where he or she lives, you should use personal service. If you absolutely do not know where he or she
lives, you may use constructive service. You may also be able to use constructive service if the other
party resides in another state or country. However, if constructive service is used, the court may only
grant limited relief. For more information on constructive service, see Notice of Action For, Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.913(a)(2), and Affidavit of Diligent Search and Inquiry,
Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.913(b). If the other party is in the military service of the
United States, additional steps for service may be required. See, for example, Memorandum for
Certificate of Military Service, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.912(a). The law
regarding constructive service and service on an individual in the military service is very complex. If you
have any questions about service, you may wish to consult an attorney regarding these issues.

If personal service is used, the other party has 20 days to answer after being served with your
supplemental petition. Your case will then generally proceed in one of the following three ways:

DEFAULT. If after 20 days, no answer has been filed, you may file a Motion for Default, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.922(a), with the clerk of court. Then, if you have filed all of the
required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to set a final
hearing. You must notify the other party of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

UNCONTESTED. If the respondent files either an answer that agrees with everything in your
supplemental petition or an answer and waiver, and you have complied with mandatory disclosure and

Relocation with Minor or Dependent Child(ren) (02/18)

filed all of the required papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to
set a final hearing. You must notify the other party of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing
(General), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of
hearing form.

CONTESTED. If the respondent files either an answer or an answer and counterpetition, which
disagrees with or denies anything in your supplemental petition, and you are unable to settle the
disputed issues, you should file a Notice for Trial, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.924, after you have complied with mandatory disclosure and filed all of the required papers. Some
circuits may require the completion of mediation before a final hearing may be set. Then you should
contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant for instructions on how to set your case for
trial (final hearing). If the respondent files an answer and counterpetition, you should answer the
counterpetition within 20 days using an Answer to Counterpetition, Florida Supreme Court Approved
Family Law Form 12.903(d).

                             Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read “General Information for Self-Represented Litigants” found at the
beginning of these forms. The words that are in “bold underline” in these instructions are defined
there. For further information, see chapter 61, Florida Statutes.

                                              Special notes...

If you do not have the money to pay the filing fee, you may obtain an Application for Determination of
Civil Indigent Status from the clerk, fill it out, and the clerk will determine whether you are eligible to
have filing fees deferred.

If there is a domestic violence case and you want to keep your address confidential for safety reasons,
do not enter the address, telephone number, and fax information at the bottom of this form. Instead,
file a Request for Confidential Filing of Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.980(h).

With this form, you must also file the following:

   Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) Affidavit, Florida Supreme Court
    Approved Family Law Form 12.902(d).
   Child Support Guidelines Worksheet, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e). (If you
    do not know the other party’s income, you may file this worksheet after his or her financial affidavit
    has been served on you.)
   Agreement for Relocation, if you have reached an agreement on any or all of the issues attach the
    proposed Agreement For Relocation with Minor Child(ren). Florida Supreme Court Approved Family
    Law 12.950(a). Both parties must sign this agreement before a notary public. Any issues on which
    you are unable to agree will be considered contested and settled by the judge at the final hearing.
   Notice of Social Security Number, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(j), if
    not previously filed.
   Family Law Financial Affidavit, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c).

                                                    - 226 -
   Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory Disclosure, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form
    12.932. (This must be filed within 45 days of service of the supplemental petition on the
    respondent, if not filed at the time of the supplemental petition, unless you and the other party
    have agreed not to exchange these documents.)

Updating Information. A parent or other person seeking to relocate has a continuing duty to provide
current and updated information required by the relocation statute when that information becomes
known.

Parenting and Time-Sharing. If you and the other parent and every other person entitled to access to or
time-sharing with the child(ren) are unable to agree on the parenting arrangements and a time-sharing
schedule, a judge will decide for you as part of establishing a Parenting Plan. The judge will decide the
parenting arrangements and a time-sharing schedule based upon the child(ren)’s best interests.
Regardless of whether there is an agreement, the court reserves jurisdiction to modify issues relating to
the minor child(ren).

Failure to obtain an Order prior to relocation renders the supplemental petition to relocate legally
insufficient.

The judge may request a parenting plan recommendation or appoint a guardian ad litem in your case.
This means that a neutral person will review your situation and report to the judge concerning parenting
issues. The purpose of such intervention is to be sure that the best interests of the child(ren) is (are)
being served. For more information, you may consult section 61.13, Florida Statutes.

If one has not already been completed, the court may require the completion of a parenting course
before a final hearing is set. You should contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant
about requirements for parenting courses or mediation where you live.

Child Support. Both parents are required to provide financial support for their minor or dependent
child(ren); however, the court may order one parent to pay child support to the other parent. Florida
has adopted guidelines for determining the amount of child support to be paid. These guidelines are
based on the combined income of both parents and take into account the financial contributions of both
parents and the number of overnights the child(ren) spend with each parent. You must file a Family
Law Financial Affidavit. Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c), and the other
parent will be required to do the same. From your financial affidavits, you should be able to calculate
the amount of child support that should be paid using the Child Support Guidelines Worksheet, Florida
Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(e). Because the child support guidelines take several
factors into consideration, change over time, and vary from state to state, your child support obligation
may be more or less than that of other people in seemingly similar situations.

Temporary Relief. If you need temporary relief regarding relocation of the minor child(ren), complete
paragraph eleven contained in the Supplemental Petition To Permit Relocation of Minor Child(ren).

Final Judgment Form. These family law forms contain a Final Judgment/Supplemental Final Judgment
Permitting Relocation, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.950(i), which the judge
may use. You should check with the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant to see if you need
to bring it with you to the hearing. If so, you should type or print the heading, including the circuit,

county, case number, division, and the parties’ names, and leave the rest blank for the judge to
complete at your hearing or trial.
Nonlawyer. Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps you
fill out these forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida Family
Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you fill out
these forms also must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of the last
page of every form he or she helps you complete.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
                       FORM 12.970(a)
     PETITION FOR TEMPORARY CUSTODY BY EXTENDED FAMILY
                           (02/18)

                                  When should this form be used?

This form should be used by an extended family member to obtain temporary custody of a child or
children pursuant to Chapter 751, Florida Statutes. This form should not be used if you are a parent
seeking to establish parental responsibility or time-sharing with a child or children.

An Extended Family Member is:
A relative of a minor child within the third degree by blood or marriage to the parent;
OR
The stepparent of a minor child if the stepparent is currently married to the parent of the child and is
not a party in a pending dissolution, separate maintenance, domestic violence, or other civil or criminal
proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction involving one or both of the child(ren)’s parents as an
adverse party.

You may file a Petition for Temporary Custody if:
You have the signed, notarized consents of the child(ren)’s legal parents;
OR
You are an extended family member who is caring full time for the child(ren) in the role of a substitute
parent and with whom the child(ren) is (are) presently living.

If one of the minor child(ren)’s parents objects to the Petition, the court shall grant the Petition only
upon a finding, by clear and convincing evidence, that the child(ren)’s parent or parents are unfit to
provide for the care and control of the child(ren). In determining that a parent is unfit, the court must
find that the parent has abused, abandoned, or neglected the child(ren), as defined in Chapter 39,
Florida Statutes. If you do not have the parents’ consents you should consult a family law attorney
before you file your papers.

If you do not meet the qualifications above, you should talk to an attorney about other options. You
may also report any suspected abuse, abandonment, or neglect to the appropriate authorities.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign the form
before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in
the county where you live and keep a copy for your records.

                         IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of

Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.970(a), Petition for Temporary Custody By
Extended Family (02/18)

Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                 IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving
pleadings by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must review
Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link
to the Rules of Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules
of Court in the A-Z Topical Index.

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail, the
procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature appears.
Please CAREFULLY read the rules and instructions for: Certificate of Service (General), Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.914; Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516.

                                        What should I do next?

IF YOU HAVE SIGNED AND NOTARIZED WAIVERS OF SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS from the
child(ren)’s parents, and the case is uncontested, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or
judicial assistant, to set a final hearing. You must notify the child(ren)’s parents of the hearing by using
a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other
appropriate notice of hearing form.

If one of the parents is deceased, you must file a certified copy of the proof of death.

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE SIGNED AND NOTARIZED WAIVERS OF SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS from
the child(ren)’s parents, you must properly notify the parents of the petition. If you know where he or
she lives, you should use personal service. If you absolutely do not know where he or she lives after
conducting a diligent search, you may use constructive service. You must complete all of the searches
listed in the Affidavit of Diligent Search and Inquiry, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form
12.913(c), and file the form with the clerk. You should seek legal advice on constructive service as this is
a complicated area of the law. If the identity of one parent is unknown, you will need to seek legal
advice to determine the proper way to serve an unknown parent. For more information, see Chapter 49,
Florida Statutes.

                                                   - 234 -
If personal service is used, the parents have 20 days to answer after being served with your petition.
Your case will generally proceed in one of the following ways:

DEFAULT. If after 20 days, no answer has been filed, you may file a Motion for Default, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.922(a), with the clerk of court. You must file a Notice for Trial,
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.924. Then, if you have filed all of the required
papers, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant, to set a final hearing.
You must notify the child(ren)’s parents of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing (General), Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of hearing form.

CONTESTED. If either parent files an answer which disagrees with or denies anything in your petition,
and you are unable to settle the disputed issues, you must file a Notice for Trial, Florida Supreme Court
Approved Family Law Form 12.924, to request a final hearing. Some circuits may require the completion
of mediation before a final hearing may be set. You should contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or
judicial assistant for instructions on how to set your case for trial (final hearing).

At any time, either or both of the child(ren)’s parents may petition the court to modify or terminate the
order granting temporary custody. The court shall terminate the order upon a finding that the parent is
a fit parent, or by the consent of the parties. The court may modify an order granting temporary
custody if the parties consent or if the modification is in the best interest of the child(ren).

                             Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read General Information for Self-Represented Litigants found at the
beginning of these forms. The words that are in bold underline in these instructions are defined there.
For further information, see Chapter 751 and Chapter 39, Florida Statutes.

                                             Special Notes. . .

If you do not have the money to pay the filing fee, you may obtain an application for Determination of
Civil Indigent Status, fill it out, and the clerk will determine whether you are eligible to have filing fees
deferred.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
                       FORM 12.970(b)
    PETITION FOR CONCURRENT CUSTODY BY EXTENDED FAMILY
                           (02/18)

                                  When should this form be used?

This form should be used by an extended family member to obtain concurrent custody of a child or
children pursuant to Chapter 751, Florida Statutes. This form should not be used if you are a parent
seeking to establish parental responsibility or time-sharing with a child or children. “Concurrent
custody” means that an eligible extended family member is awarded custodial rights to care for a child
or children concurrently with the child(ren)’s parent or parents.

An Extended Family Member is:
A relative of a minor child within the third degree by blood or marriage to the parent;
OR
The stepparent of a minor child if the stepparent is currently married to the parent of the child and is
not a party in a pending dissolution, separate maintenance, domestic violence, or other civil or criminal
proceeding in any court of competent jurisdiction involving one or both of the child(ren)’s parents as an
adverse party.

You may file a Petition for Concurrent Custody if:
You have the signed, notarized consents of the child(ren)’s legal parents;
OR
You are an extended family member who is caring full time for the child(ren) in the role of a substitute
parent and with whom the child(ren) is (are) presently living.

In addition, you must currently have physical custody of the child(ren) and have had physical custody of
the child(ren) for at least 10 days in any 30-day period within the last 12 months; and not have signed,
written documentation from a parent which is sufficient to enable you to do all the things necessary to
care for the child(ren).

If you do not meet the qualifications above, you should talk to an attorney about other options. You
may also report any suspected abuse, abandonment, or neglect to the appropriate authorities.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should sign the form
before a notary public or deputy clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in
the county where you live and keep a copy for your records.

                            IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                 IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form

IF YOU HAVE SIGNED AND NOTARIZED WAIVERS OF SERVICE OF PROCESS AND CONSENTS from the
child(ren)’s parents, you may contact the clerk, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant, to set a
final hearing. You must notify the child(ren)’s parents of the hearing by using a Notice of Hearing
(General), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.923, or other appropriate notice of
hearing form.

If one of the parents is deceased, you must file a certified copy of the proof of death.

If one of the minor child(ren)’s parents objects to the Petition for Concurrent Custody in writing, the
court may not grant the petition even if the other parent consents, in writing, to the entry of the order.
If a parent objects, you have the option of converting the Petition to a Petition for Temporary Custody
by Extended Family, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.970(a). If the Petition is not
converted into a Petition for Temporary Custody by Extended Family, it shall be dismissed without
prejudice.

At any time, the Petitioner or either or both of the child(ren)’s parents may move the court to terminate
the order granting concurrent custody. The court shall terminate the order upon a finding that either or
both of the child(ren)’s parents objects to the order. The fact that the order for concurrent custody has

custody from filing such petition.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
                       FORM 12.982(a)
            PETITION FOR CHANGE OF NAME (ADULT)
                           (02/18)

                                  When should this form be used?

This form should be used when an adult wants the court to change his or her name. This form is not to
be used in connection with a dissolution of marriage or for adoption of child(ren). If you want a change
of name because of a dissolution of marriage or adoption of child(ren) that is not yet final, the change
of name should be requested as part of that case.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink and must be signed before a notary public or deputy
clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in the county where you live and
keep a copy for your records.
                                        What should I do next?

Unless you are seeking to restore a former name, you must have fingerprints submitted for a state and
national criminal records check. The fingerprints must be taken in a manner approved by the Department
of Law Enforcement and must be submitted to the Department for a state and national criminal records
check. You may not request a hearing on the petition until the clerk of court has received the results of
your criminal history records check. The clerk of court can instruct you on the process for having the
fingerprints taken and submitted, including information on law enforcement agencies or service providers
authorized to submit fingerprints electronically to the Department of Law Enforcement. The process may
take several weeks and you will have to pay for the cost of processing the fingerprints and conducting the
state and national criminal history records check. Please note that the state and national criminal
records check must indicate whether you have registered as a sexual predator or a sexual offender and
you must also indicate on this petition whether you have ever been required to register as a sexual
predator under section 775.21, Florida Statutes, or as a sexual offender under section 943.0435, F.S.

Next, you must obtain a hearing date for the court to consider your request. If you are seeking to restore
a former name, a hearing on the petition MAY be held immediately after the petition is filed. The final
hearing on any other petition for a name change may be held immediately after the clerk of court receives
the results of your criminal history records check. You should ask the clerk of court, family law intake
staff, or judicial assistant about the local procedure for setting a hearing. You may be required to attend
the final hearing. Included in these forms is a Final Judgment of Change of Name (Adult), Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.982(b), which the judge may use. You should contact the clerk, family
law intake staff, or judicial assistant, to see if you need to bring a final judgment form with you. If so, you
should type or print the heading, including the circuit, county, case number, division, and the parties’
names, and leave the rest blank for the judge to complete at your hearing or trial.

If the judge grants your petition, he or she will sign this order. This officially changes your name. The clerk
can provide you with certified copies of the signed order. There will be charges for the certified copies,
and the clerk can tell you the amount of the charges.
                             Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read General Information for Self-Represented Litigants found at the
beginning of these forms. For further information, see Section 68.07, Florida Statutes.

                            IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration ow require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                     IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving
pleadings by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must review Florida
Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link to the
Rules of Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules of Court
in the A-Z Topical Index.

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail, the
procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature appears. Please
CAREFULLY read the rules and instructions for: Certificate of Service (General), Florida Supreme Court
Approved Family Law Form 12.914; Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516.

The heading of the form calls for the name of the petitioner. Your current name should go there, as you
are the one who is asking the court for something. The judicial circuit, case number, and division may be
obtained from the clerk of court’s office when you file the petition.

It may be helpful to compile a list of all of the people and/or places that will need a copy of your final
judgment. This list may include the driver’s license office, social security office, banks, schools, etc. A list
will help you know how many copies of your order you should get from the clerk of court after your
hearing.

Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps you fill out these
forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida Family Law Rules of
Procedure Form 12.900 (a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you fill out these forms also
must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of the last page of every form
he or she helps you complete.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
                       FORM 12.982(c)
       PETITION FOR CHANGE OF NAME (MINOR CHILD(REN))
                           (02/18)

                                  When should this form be used?

This form should be used when parents want the court to change the name of their minor child(ren). For
the purposes of this proceeding, a person under the age of 18 is a minor. This form is not to be used in
connection with an adoption, dissolution of marriage, or paternity action. If you want a change of name
for your child(ren) because of an adoption or paternity action that is not yet final, the change of name
should be requested as part of that case.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink and must be signed before a notary public or deputy
clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court, in the county where you live and keep
a copy for your records. The Petition should only be completed by one Petitioner for one child. If you
wish to change the name of more than one child or if there is more than one Petitioner, you should
complete and file a Supplemental Form for Petition for Change of Name (Minor Child) for each child
and/or a Supplemental Form for Petition for Change of Name. The supplemental form(s) is an attachment
to the petition. Be sure that the bottom of each page of each supplemental form is initialed by the
petitioner(s).

                                        What should I do next?

Unless you are seeking to restore a former name, each adult petitioner(s)’s fingerprints must be
submitted for a state and national criminal history records check. The fingerprints must be taken in a
manner approved by the Department of Law Enforcement. The fingerprints must be submitted to the
Department of Law Enforcement for a state and national criminal history records check. The Petitioner(s)
may not request a hearing on the Petition until the copy of the fingerprints are filed and the clerk of
court has received the results of the criminal history records check. The clerk of court can instruct you
on the process for having the fingerprints taken and submitted, including information on law enforcement
agencies or service providers authorized to submit fingerprints electronically to the Department of Law
Enforcement. The process may take several weeks and the parent or guardian of the minor must pay the
cost of processing the fingerprints and conducting the state and national history records check. Please
note that the state and national criminal records check must indicate whether you have registered as
either a sexual predator or a sexual offender and you must also indicate on this petition whether you
have ever been required to register as a sexual predator under section 775.21, Florida Statutes, or as a
sexual offender under section 943.0435, Florida Statutes.

If both parents agree to the change of name and live in the county where the change of name is sought,

Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.982(c), Petition for Change of Name (Minor
Children) (02/18)
                                                   - 287 -
you may both file as petitioners. In this situation, service is not necessary, and you need only to set a
hearing. You should ask the clerk of court, family law intake staff, or judicial assistant about the local
procedure for setting a hearing.

If only one parent is a resident of the county where the change of name(s) is sought or only one parent
asks for the child(ren)’s name(s) to be changed, the other parent must be notified and his or her consent
obtained, if possible. If the other parent consents to the change of name, a Consent for Change of Name
(Minor Child(ren)), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.982(d), should be filed.

If the other parent does not consent to the change of name, you may still have a hearing on the petition
if you have properly notified the other parent about your petition and the hearing. If you know where he
or she lives, you must use personal service. If you absolutely do not know where he or she lives, you may
use constructive service. For more information about personal and constructive service, you should refer
[to] the “General Instructions for Self-Represented Litigants” found at the beginning of these forms and
the instructions to Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Forms 12.910(a) and 12.913(b) and Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.913(a). However, the law regarding constructive service is
very complex and you may wish to consult an attorney regarding that issue.

Next, you must obtain a final hearing date for the court to consider your request. If you are seeking to
restore a former name, a hearing on the petition MAY be held immediately after the petition is filed. The
final hearing on any other petition for a name change may be held immediately after the clerk of court
receives the results of your criminal history records check. You should ask the clerk of court, family law
intake staff, or judicial assistant about the local procedure for setting a hearing. You may be required to
attend the hearing. Included in these forms is a Final Judgment of Change of Name (Minor Child(ren)),
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.982(e), which may be used when a judge grants a
change of name for a minor child(ren). If you attend the hearing, you should take the final judgment with
you. You should complete the top part of the form, including the circuit, county, case number, division,
and the name(s) of the petitioner(s) and leave the rest blank for the judge to complete. It should be typed
or printed in black ink.

If the judge grants your petition, he or she will sign this order. This officially changes your child(ren)’s
name(s). The clerk can provide you with certified copies of the signed order. There will be charges for
the certified copies, and the clerk can tell you the amount of the charges.

                             Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read “General Information for Self-Represented Litigants” found at the
beginning of these forms. For further information, see section 68.07, Florida Statutes.

                 IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other

Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.982(c), Petition for Change of Name (Minor
Children) (02/18)
                                                   - 288 -
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

               IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving
pleadings by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must review Florida
Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link to the
Rules of Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules of Court
in the A-Z Topical Index.

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail, the
procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature appears. Please
CAREFULLY read the rules and instructions for: Certificate of Service (General), Florida Supreme Court
Approved Family Law Form 12.914; Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516.

                                              Special notes...

The heading of the form calls for the name(s) of the petitioner(s). This means the parent(s) who is (are)
requesting the change of their child(ren)’s name(s). The judicial circuit, case number, and division may be
obtained from the clerk of court’s office when you file the petition.

It may be helpful to compile a list of all of the people and places that will need a copy of the final judgment.
This list may include the driver’s license office, social security office, banks, schools, etc. A list will help
you know how many copies of your order you should get from the clerk of court after your hearing.

Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps you fill out these
forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida Family Law Rules of
Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you fill out these forms also
must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of the last page of every form
he or she helps you complete.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
                       FORM 12.982(f)
            PETITION FOR CHANGE OF NAME (FAMILY)
                           (02/18)

                                  When should this form be used?

This form should be used when the parents are married and the family wants the court to change its
name. This form is not to be used in connection with a dissolution of marriage, paternity, or adoption
action. If you want a change of name because of a dissolution of marriage, paternity, or adoption action
that is not yet final, the change of name should be requested as part of that case.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink and must be signed before a notary public or deputy
clerk. You should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in the county where you live and keep
a copy for your records. The petition should only be completed for one adult. If you wish to change the
name(s) of another adult and/or any child(ren), you should complete and file with the clerk of court the
attached Adult and Child Supplemental Form(s) for Petition for Change of Name (Family) for each
additional family member. Be sure that the bottom of each page of each supplemental form is initialed.

                                         What should I do next?
Unless you are seeking to restore a former name, each adult petitioner must have fingerprints
submitted for a state and national criminal history records check. The fingerprints must be taken in a
manner approved by the Department of Law Enforcement and must be submitted to the Department for
a state and national criminal history records check. You may not request a hearing on the petition until
the clerk of court has received the results of your criminal history records check. The clerk of court can
instruct you on the process for having the fingerprints taken and submitted, including information on law
enforcement agencies or service providers authorized to submit finger prints electronically to the
Department of Law Enforcement. The process may take several weeks and you will have to pay for the
cost of processing the fingerprints and conducting the state and national criminal history records check.
Please note that the state and national criminal records check must indicate whether you have
registered as either a sexual predator or a sexual offender and you must also indicate on this petition
whether you have ever been required to register as a sexual predator under section 775.21, Florida
Statutes, or as a sexual offender under section 943.0435, Florida Statutes.

If any of the children for whom you are requesting this change of name are not the legal children of both
adults filing this petition, you must obtain the consent of the legal parent(s). A parent not named as a
petitioner in this action may consent by submitting a Consent for Change of Name (Minor Child(ren)),
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.982(d).

If the other parent does not consent to the change of name, you may still have a hearing on the petition

Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.982(f), Petition for Change of Name (Family)
(02/18)
                                                   - 307 -
if you have properly notified the other parent about your petition and the hearing. If you know where he
or she lives, you must use personal service. If you absolutely do not know where he or she lives, you may
use constructive service. For more information about personal and constructive service, you should refer
to the “General Instructions for Self-Represented Litigants” found at the beginning of these forms and
the instructions to Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Forms 12.910(a) and 12.913(b) and Florida
Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.913(a). The law on constructive service is very complex
and you may wish to consult an attorney regarding constructive service.

Next, you must obtain a final hearing date for the court to consider your request. If you are seeking to
restore a former name, the final hearing on the petition MAY be held immediately after the petition is
filed. The final hearing on any other petition for a name change may be held immediately after the clerk
of court receives the results of your criminal history records check. You should ask the clerk of court,
family law intake staff, or judicial assistant about the local procedure for setting a hearing. You may be
required to attend the hearing. Included in these forms is a Final Judgment of Change of Name (Family),
Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.982(g), which may be used when a judge grants a
change of name for a family. If you attend the hearing, you should take the final judgment form with you.
You should complete the top part of this form, including the circuit, county, case number, division, the
name(s) of the petitioner(s) and leave the rest blank for the judge to complete. It should be typed or
printed in black ink.

If the judge grants your petition, he or she will sign this order. This officially changes your family’s name.
The clerk can provide you with certified copies of the signed order. There will be charges for the certified
copies, and the clerk can tell you the amount of the charges.

                             Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read “General Information for Self-Represented Litigants” found at the
beginning of these forms. For further information, see section 68.07, Florida Statutes.

                       IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

               IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or

permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving pleadings
by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must review Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link to the Rules of
Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules of Court in the
A-Z Topical Index.

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail, the
procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature appears. Please
CAREFULLY read the rules and instructions for: Certificate of Service (General), Florida Supreme Court
Approved Family Law Form 12.914; Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516.

                                              Special notes...

The heading of the form calls for the name(s) of the petitioner(s). This is (are) the parent(s) who is/are
requesting the change of their family’s name(s). The judicial circuit, case number, and division may be
obtained from the clerk of court’s office when you file the petition.

It may be helpful to compile a list of all of the people and places that will need a copy of the final judgment.
This list may include the driver’s license office, social security office, banks, schools, etc. A list will help
you know how many copies of your order you should get from the clerk of court after your hearing.

Remember, a person who is NOT an attorney is called a nonlawyer. If a nonlawyer helps you fill out these
forms, that person must give you a copy of a Disclosure from Nonlawyer, Florida Family Law Rules of
Procedure Form 12.900(a), before he or she helps you. A nonlawyer helping you fill out these forms also
must put his or her name, address, and telephone number on the bottom of the last page of every form
he or she helps you complete.

                                  When should this form be used?

A Parenting Plan is required in all cases involving time-sharing with minor child(ren), even when time-
sharing is not in dispute. The Parenting Plan must be developed and agreed to by the parents and
approved by the court. If the parties cannot agree to a Parenting Plan or if the parents agreed to a plan
that is not approved by the court, a Parenting Plan will be established by the court with or without the
use of parenting plan recommendations. This form or a similar form should be used in the development
of a Parenting Plan. If the case involves supervised time-sharing, the Supervised/Safety Focused
Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(b) or a similar form should be
used. If the case involves relocation, pursuant to Section 61.13001, Florida Statutes, then a
Relocation/Long Distance Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(c)
or a similar form should be used. The parents must identify a name or designation to be used
throughout this Parenting Plan.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. Please either delete or strike-through terms or
paragraphs that are inappropriate or inapplicable to your agreement. If an agreement has been reached,
both parties must sign the Parenting Plan and have their signatures witnessed by a notary public or
deputy clerk. After completing this form, you should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court
in the county where the petition was filed and keep a copy for your records. You should then refer to
the instructions for your petition, answer, or answer and counterpetition concerning the procedures for
setting a hearing or trial (final hearing). If the parents have not reached an agreement, a proposed
Parenting Plan may be filed by either parent at the time of or any time prior to the final hearing. If an
agreed Parenting Plan is not filed by the parties, the court shall establish a Plan.

                       IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

                                              Special notes...

At a minimum, the Parenting Plan must describe in adequate detail:
       How the parties will share and be responsible for the daily tasks associated with the upbringing
        of the child(ren),
       The time-sharing schedule arrangements that specify the time that the minor child(ren) will
        spend with each parent,
       A designation of who will be responsible for any and all forms of health care, school-related
        matters, including the address to be used for school-boundary determination and registration,
        other activities, and
       The methods and technologies that the parents will use to communicate with the child(ren).

The best interests of the child(ren) is the primary consideration in the Parenting Plan. In creating the
Parenting Plan, all circumstances between the parents, including their historic relationship, domestic

Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(a), Parenting Plan (02/18)
                                                   - 411 -
violence, and other factors must be taken into consideration. Determination of the best interests of the
child(ren) shall be made by evaluating all of the factors affecting the welfare and interest of the particular
minor child(ren) and the circumstances of that family, as listed in section 61.13(3), Florida Statutes,
including, but not limited to:
       The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each parent to facilitate and encourage a close and
        continuing parent-child relationship, to honor the time-sharing schedule, and to be reasonable
        when changes are required;
       The anticipated division of parental responsibilities after the litigation, including the extent to
        which parental responsibilities will be delegated to third parties;
       The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each parent to determine, consider, and act upon
        the needs of the child(ren) as opposed to the needs or desires of the parent;
       The length of time the child(ren) has lived in a stable, satisfactory environment and the desirability
        of maintaining continuity;
       The geographic viability of the parenting plan, with special attention paid to the needs of school-
        age children and the amount of time to be spent traveling to effectuate the parenting plan. This
        factor does not create a presumption for or against relocation of either parent with a child(ren);
       The moral fitness of the parents;
       The mental and physical health of the parents;
       The home, school, and community record of the child(ren);
       The reasonable preference of the child(ren), if the court deems the child(ren) to be of sufficient
        intelligence, understanding, and experience to express a preference;
       The demonstrated knowledge, capacity, and disposition of each parent to be informed of the
        circumstances of the minor child(ren), including, but not limited to, the child(ren)’s friends,
        teachers, medical care providers, daily activities, and favorite things;
       The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each parent to provide a consistent routine for the
        child(ren), such as discipline, and daily schedules for homework, meals, and bedtime;
       The demonstrated capacity of each parent to communicate with and keep the other parent
        informed of issues and activities regarding the minor child(ren), and the willingness of each parent
        to adopt a unified front on all major issues when dealing with the child(ren);
       Evidence of domestic violence, sexual violence, child abuse, child abandonment, or child neglect,
        regardless of whether a prior or pending action relating to those issues has been brought. If the
        court accepts evidence of prior or pending actions regarding domestic violence, sexual violence,
        child abuse, child abandonment, or child neglect, the court must specifically acknowledge in
        writing that such evidence was considered when evaluating the best interests of the child(ren);
       Evidence that either parent has knowingly provided false information to the court regarding any
        prior or pending action regarding domestic violence, sexual violence, child abuse, child
        abandonment, or child neglect;
       The particular parenting tasks customarily performed by each parent and the division or parental
        responsibilities before the institution of litigation and during the pending litigation, including the
        extent to which parenting responsibilities were undertaken by third parties;
       The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each parent to participate and be involved in the
        child(ren)’s school and extracurricular activities;

       The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each parent to maintain an environment for the
        child(ren) which is free from substance abuse;
       The capacity and disposition of each parent to protect the child(ren) from the ongoing litigation
        as demonstrated by not discussing the litigation with the child(ren), not sharing documents or
        electronic media related to the litigation with the child(ren), and refraining from disparaging
        comments about the other parent to the child)ren); and
       The developmental stages and needs of the child(ren) and the demonstrated capacity and
        disposition of each parent to meet the child(ren)’s developmental needs.

This standard form does not include every possible issue that may be relevant to the facts of your case.
The Parenting Plan should be as detailed as possible to address the time-sharing schedule. Additional
provisions should be added to address all of the relevant factors. The parties should give special
consideration to the age and needs of each child.

In developing the Parenting Plan, you may wish to consult or review other materials which are available
at your local library, law library or through national and state family organizations.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
                       FORM 12.995(b),
         SUPERVISED/SAFETY-FOCUSED PARENTING PLAN
                           (02/18)

                                  When should this form be used?

A Parenting Plan is required in all cases involving minor child(ren). This form or a similar form should be
used in cases when you feel your child(ren) cannot be safely alone with the other parent or if you
believe shared parental responsibility presents a detriment to the child(ren). In this case, a Parenting
Plan must be developed that allows time-sharing with any minor child(ren), while providing protection
for the child(ren). If safety or supervised time-sharing is not a concern, Parenting Plan, Florida Supreme
Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(a) or a similar form should be used. If the case involves
relocation, pursuant to Section 61.13001, Florida Statutes, then Relocation/Long Distance Parenting
Plan, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(c) or a similar form should be used.
The parents must identify a name or designation to be used throughout this Parenting Plan.

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. If an agreement has been reached, both parties must
sign the Parenting Plan and have their signatures witnessed by a notary public or deputy clerk. After
completing this form, you should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in the county where
the petition was filed and keep a copy for your records. You should then refer to the instructions for
your petition, answer, or answer and counterpetition concerning the procedures for setting a hearing or
trial (final hearing). If the parents have not reached an agreement, a proposed Parenting Plan may be
filed by either parent at the time of or any time prior to the final hearing. If an agreed Parenting Plan is
not filed by the parties, the court shall establish a Plan.

                            IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other

your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving pleadings

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form

Confidential Filing of Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Form 12.980(h), file it with the clerk of
the circuit court and write confidential in the space provided in the Parenting Plan.

At a minimum, the Parenting Plan must describe in adequate detail:
       How the parties will share and be responsible for the daily tasks associated with the upbringing
        of the child(ren),
       The time-sharing schedule arrangements that specify the time that the minor child(ren) will
        spend with each parent,
       A designation of who will be responsible for any and all forms of health care, school-related
        matters, including the address to be used for school-boundary determination and registration,
        other activities, and
       The methods and technologies that the parents will use to communicate with the child(ren).

The best interests of the child(ren) is the primary consideration in the Parenting Plan. In creating the
Parenting Plan, all circumstances between the parents, including their historic relationship, domestic
violence, and other factors must be taken into consideration. Determination of the best interests of the
child(ren) shall be made by evaluating all of the factors affecting the welfare and interest of the
particular minor child(ren) and the circumstances of that family, as listed in section 61.13(3), Florida
Statutes, including, but not limited to:
     The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each parent to facilitate and encourage a close
        and continuing parent-child relationship, to honor the time-sharing schedule, and to be
        reasonable when changes are required;
     The anticipated division of parental responsibilities after the litigation, including the extent to
        which parental responsibilities will be delegated to third parties;
     The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each parent to determine, consider, and act upon
        the needs of the child(ren) as opposed to the needs or desires of the parent;
     The length of time the child(ren) has lived in a stable, satisfactory environment and the
        desirability of maintaining continuity;
     The geographic viability of the parenting plan, with special attention paid to the needs of school-
        age children and the amount of time to be spent traveling to effectuate the parenting plan. This
        factor does not create a presumption for or against relocation of either parent with a child(ren);
     The moral fitness of the parents;
     The mental and physical health of the parents;
     The home, school, and community record of the child(ren);
     The reasonable preference of the child(ren), if the court deems the child(ren) to be of sufficient
        intelligence, understanding, and experience to express a preference;
     The demonstrated knowledge, capacity, and disposition of each parent to be informed of the
        circumstances of the minor child(ren), including, but not limited to, the child(ren)’s friends,
        teachers, medical care providers, daily activities, and favorite things;
     The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each parent to provide a consistent routine for
        the child(ren), such as discipline, and daily schedules for homework, meals, and bedtime;
     The demonstrated capacity of each parent to communicate with and keep the other parent

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW
                       FORM 12.995(c)
          RELOCATION/LONG DISTANCE PARENTING PLAN
                           (02/18)

                                  When should this form be used?

A Parenting Plan is required in all cases involving time-sharing with minor child(ren), even when time-
sharing is not in dispute. The Parenting Plan must be developed and agreed to by the parents and every
other person entitled to access or time-sharing with the child(ren) and approved by the court. “Other
Person” means an individual who is not the parent, but with whom the child resides pursuant to court
order, or who has the right of access to, time-sharing with or visitation with the child(ren). If the parties
cannot agree to a Parenting Plan or if the parents agreed to a Plan that is not approved by the court, a
Parenting Plan will be established by the court with or without the use of Parenting Plan
Recommendations. The parents or Other Person must identify a name or designation to be used
throughout this Parenting Plan.

This form or a similar form should be used in the development of a Parenting Plan when you are
planning to relocate your or the child(ren)’s principal residence more than 50 miles from the principal
place of residence:

   at the time of the last order either establishing or modifying time-sharing, or
   at the time of filing the pending action to either establish or modify time-sharing

This form should be typed or printed in black ink. If an agreement has been reached, both parties must
sign the Parenting Plan and have their signatures witnessed by a notary public or deputy clerk. After
completing this form, you should file the original with the clerk of the circuit court in the county where
the petition was filed and keep a copy for your records. You should then refer to the instructions for
your petition, answer, or answer and counterpetition concerning the procedures for setting a hearing or
trial (final hearing). If an agreed Parenting Plan is not filed by the parties, the Court shall establish a
Plan.

                      IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-FILING

The Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all petitions, pleadings, and documents be
filed electronically except in certain circumstances. Self-represented litigants may file petitions or other
pleadings or documents electronically; however, they are not required to do so. If you choose to file
your pleadings or other documents electronically, you must do so in accordance with Florida rule of
Judicial Administration 2.525, and you must follow the procedures of the judicial circuit in which you file.
The rules and procedures should be carefully read and followed.

                     IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING E-SERVICE ELECTION

After the initial service of process of the petition or supplemental petition by the Sheriff or certified
process server, the Florida Rules of Judicial Administration now require that all documents required or
permitted to be served on the other party must be served by electronic mail (e-mail) except in certain
circumstances. You must strictly comply with the format requirements set forth in the Rules of Judicial
Administration. If you elect to participate in electronic service, which means serving or receiving pleadings
by electronic mail (e-mail), or through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal, you must review Florida Rule of
Judicial Administration 2.516. You may find this rule at www.flcourts.org through the link to the Rules of
Judicial Administration provided under either Family Law Forms: Getting Started, or Rules of Court in the
A-Z Topical Index.

SELF-REPRESENTED LITIGANTS MAY SERVE DOCUMENTS BY E-MAIL; HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT
REQUIRED TO DO SO. If a self-represented litigant elects to serve and receive documents by e-mail, the
procedures must always be followed once the initial election is made.

To serve and receive documents by e-mail, you must designate your e-mail addresses by using the
Designation of Current Mailing and E-mail Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form
12.915, and you must provide your e-mail address on each form on which your signature appears. Please

                             Where can I look for more information?

Before proceeding, you should read “General Information for Self-Represented Litigants” found at the
beginning of these forms. The words that are in “bold underline” in these instructions are defined

                                             Special notes...

At a minimum, the Relocation/Long Distance Parenting Plan must describe in adequate detail:
     How the parties will share and be responsible for the daily tasks associated with the upbringing
        of the child(ren),
     The time-sharing schedule that specifies the time that the minor child(ren) will spend with each
        parent and every other person entitled to access or time-sharing,
     A designation of who will be responsible for any and all forms of health care, school-related
        matters, including the address to be used for school-boundary determination and registration,
        other activities,
     The methods and technologies that the parties will use to communicate with the child(ren), and

Instructions for Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.995(c), Relocation/Long Distance Parenting
Plan (02/18)
                                                   - 442 -
     Any transportation arrangements related to access or time-sharing.
The best interests of the child(ren) is the primary consideration in the Parenting Plan. In creating the
Parenting Plan, all circumstances between the parties, including the parties’ historic relationship,
domestic violence, and other factors must be taken into consideration. Determination of the best
interests of the child(ren) shall be made by evaluating all of the factors affecting the welfare and interest
of the particular minor child(ren) and the circumstances of the family as listed in section 61.13(3), Florida
Statutes, including, but not limited to:
         The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each party to facilitate and encourage a close
             and continuing parent-child relationship, to honor the time-sharing schedule, and to be
             reasonable when changes are required;
         The anticipated division of parental responsibilities after the litigation, including the extent
             to which parental responsibilities will be delegated to third parties;
         The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each party to determine, consider, and
             act upon the needs of the child(ren) as opposed to the needs or desires of the parent;
         The length of time the child(ren) has lived in a stable, satisfactory environment and the
             desirability of maintaining continuity;
         The geographic viability of the parenting plan, with special attention paid to the needs
             of school-age children and the amount of time to be spent traveling to effectuate the
             parenting plan. This factor does not create a presumption for or against relocation of
             either party with a child(ren);
         The moral fitness of the parties;
         The mental and physical health of the parties;
         The home, school, and community record of the child(ren);
         The reasonable preference of the child(ren), if the court deems the child(ren) to be of
             sufficient intelligence, understanding, and experience to express a preference;
         The demonstrated knowledge, capacity, and disposition of each party to be informed of
             the circumstances of the minor child(ren), including, but not limited to, the child(ren)’s
             friends, teachers, medical care providers, daily activities, and favorite things;
         The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each party to provide a consistent routine for
             the child(ren), such as discipline, and daily schedules for homework, meals, and bedtime;
         The demonstrated capacity of each party to communicate with and keep the other
             part(y)ies informed of issues and activities regarding the minor child(ren), and the
             willingness of each party to adopt a unified front on all major issues when dealing with the
             child(ren);
         Evidence of domestic violence, sexual violence, child abuse, child abandonment, or child
             neglect, regardless of whether a prior or pending action relating to those issues has
             been brought. If the court accepts evidence of prior or pending actions regarding
             domestic violence, sexual violence, child abuse, child abandonment, or child neglect, the
             court must specifically acknowledge in writing that such evidence was considered when
             evaluating the best interests of the child(ren);
         Evidence that any party has knowingly provided false information to the court regarding any
             prior or pending action regarding domestic violence, sexual violence, child abuse,
             child abandonment, or child neglect;

           The particular parenting tasks customarily performed by each party and the division of
            parental responsibilities before the institution of litigation and during the pending litigation,
            including the extent to which parenting responsibilities were undertaken by third parties;
           The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each party to participate and be involved
            in the child(ren)’s school and extracurricular activities;
           The demonstrated capacity and disposition of each party to maintain an environment
            for the child(ren) which is free from substance abuse;
           The capacity and disposition of each party to protect the child(ren) from the ongoing
            litigation as demonstrated by not discussing the litigation with the child(ren), not sharing
            documents or electronic media related to the litigation with the child(ren), and refraining
            from disparaging comments about any other party to the child)ren); and
           The developmental stages and needs of the child(ren) and the demonstrated capacity
            and disposition of each party to meet the child(ren)’s developmental needs.

This standard form does not include every possible issue that may be relevant to the facts of your case.
The Parenting Plan should be as detailed as possible to address the time-sharing schedule. Additional
provisions should be added to address all of the relevant factors. The parties should give special
consideration to the age and needs of each child.

In developing the Parenting Plan, you may wish to consult or review other materials which are available
at your local library, law library or through national and state family organizations.
