*the last three years of personal income tax returns,
*all notices of assessment or reassessment received in relation to the last three tax years, and
*a recent paystub showing earnings-to-day or a letter from the employer confirming the terms of a party's income.
People who have income from ''EI'', ''WCB'', ''CPP'', or ''social assistance'', will also have to produce their three most recent statements or cheque stubs from their payments.
