Why This Matters
Family-law procedures, court forms, filing fees, and guideline figures (like child-support tables) are set by regulation and legislation, and they change from time to time. A guide that was accurate when written can become outdated without any error in how it was originally researched.
Our General Approach
Guides on this site are periodically reviewed against the primary sources listed in their “Sources & Further Reading” sections. Where a rule or figure is genuinely likely to change, guides generally avoid stating it as fixed forever — they hedge (“generally,” “currently,” “can change”) and point to the primary source so a reader can confirm the current version.
Interactive tools under Tools display an “Updated” date directly on the page. Broader, guide-by-guide “last reviewed” dates are being rolled out across the rest of the site over time.
What This Means for You
Treat any specific number, deadline, or fee on this site as a general reference point, not a guarantee of what applies today. Before relying on a specific figure, confirm it directly with the primary source linked on that page, or with a licensed Ontario family lawyer.
