What constitutes a false statement on a Form E?
A false statement on a Form E involves concealing information or providing information that is untrue, incorrect or misleading. This can include:
Failing to disclose assets, ownership of property, income sources, or providing false documentation.
Providing inaccurate or under valuations for properties, businesses, pensions, and investments.
Inflating debt liabilities or monthly outgoings to misrepresent a financial position.
Not disclosing all sources of income or cash in hand receipts.
Providing false information about employment status, living arrangements, or future intentions.
Every Form E must be verified by a Statement of Truth, confirming the information is accurate. Making false statements has serious implications, and can lead to contempt of court proceedings.
