INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA FAMILY LAW RULES OF PROCEDURE
FORM 12.932
CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE WITH MANDATORY DISCLOSURE
(11/20)
When should this form be used?
Mandatory disclosure requires each party in a family matter to provide the other party with certain
financial information and documents. These documents must be served on the other party within 45 days
of service of the initial petition or supplemental petition for modification on the respondent. The
mandatory disclosure rule applies to all original and supplemental cases, except simplified dissolution of
marriage cases and cases where the respondent is served by constructive service and does not answer.
You should use this form to notify the court and the other party that you have complied with the
mandatory disclosure rule.
Each party must provide the other party with the documents listed in section 2 of this form if the relief
being sought is permanent regardless of whether it is an initial or supplemental proceeding. ONLY THE
COMPLETED FORM IS FILED WITH THE COURT. EXCEPT FOR THE FINANCIAL AFFIDAVIT AND CHILD
SUPPORT GUIDELINES WORKSHEET, NO DOCUMENTS SHALL BE FILED IN THE COURT FILE WITHOUT A
PRIOR COURT ORDER. THE DOCUMENTS LISTED ON THE FORM ARE TO BE GIVEN TO THE OTHER PARTY.
If your individual gross annual income is under $50,000, you should complete the Family Law Financial
Affidavit (Short Form), Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b). If your individual gross
annual income is $50,000 or more, you should complete the Family Law Financial Affidavit (Long Form),
Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(c).
In addition, there are separate mandatory disclosure requirements that apply to temporary financial
hearings, which are listed in section 1 of this form. The party seeking temporary financial relief must serve
these documents on the other party with the notice of temporary financial hearing. The responding party
must serve the required documents on the party seeking temporary relief. Any documents that have
already been served under the requirements for temporary or initial proceedings do not need to be
reserved again in the same proceeding. If a supplemental petition is filed, seeking modification, then the
mandatory disclosure requirements begin again.
You must state with specificity the documents that you are producing to the other party. References to
account numbers and personal identifying information are governed by Florida Rule of Judicial
Administration 2.425, which you should review prior to completing this form.
This form should be typed or printed in black ink. After completing this form, you should file this
document with the clerk of the circuit court in the county where your case is filed and keep a copy for
your records. A copy of this form must be served on any other party in your case. Service must be in
accordance with Florida Rule of Judicial Administration 2.516.

Disclosure (11/20)
What should I do next?
After you have provided the other party all of the financial information and documents and have filed this
form certifying that you have complied with this rule, you are under a continuing duty to promptly give
the other party any information or documents that change your financial status or that make the
information already provided inaccurate. You should not file with the clerk any of the documents listed
in the certificate of compliance other than the financial affidavit and the child support guidelines
worksheet. Refer to the instructions regarding the petition in your case to determine how you should
proceed after filing this form.
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 Florida Family Law Rule of Procedure 12.285.
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
Florida 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 email,
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
Instructions for Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.932, Certificate of Compliance with Mandatory
Disclosure (11/20)
Address, Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.915; and Florida Rule of Judicial
Administration 2.516.
Special notes. . .
You may provide copies of required documents; however, the originals must be produced for inspection
if the other party requests to see them.
Although the financial affidavits are based on individual gross income, either party may ask the other
party to complete the Family Law Financial Affidavit (Long Form), Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure
Form 12.902(c), by serving the appropriate interrogatory form. (See Standard Family Law
Interrogatories, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.930(b) (original proceedings) or (c)
(modification proceedings)).
Any portion of the mandatory disclosure rule may be modified by order of the judge or agreement of
the parties. Therefore, you and the other party may agree that you will not require each other to
produce the documents required under the mandatory disclosure rule. This exception does not apply
to the Financial Affidavit, Family Law Rules of Procedure Form 12.902(b) or (c), which is required in all
cases and cannot be waived.
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.
