Documents depend on the issues in dispute, but commonly useful records include:
- citizenship/identity documents;
- marriage registration or evidence of marriage;
- children's birth records;
- property ownership documents;
- income and financial records;
- evidence supporting the alleged divorce ground;
- prior agreements;
- relevant police, medical or court records where applicable.
For property claims, a complete family-property history is often more useful than only the spouse's latest land certificate.
