AFI Help
The AFI is the hardest part
of filing for divorce in Arizona.
The Affidavit of Financial Information requires 40+ expense categories, every bank account, every debt, your full income history, and monthly budget projections. For many straightforward cases, Clarity can turn a multi-day AFI task into a guided session that takes about 30 minutes.
You are not paying for software. You are paying to avoid missing fields, math errors, and delays that come from filling the AFI on your own.

Why the AFI trips up most self-filers
What the court requires
Arizona Rule of Family Law Procedure 49 requires both spouses to exchange a complete Affidavit of Financial Information within 40 days of service. The AFI is a sworn document that discloses your entire financial picture to the court.
- •Gross and net monthly income from all sources
- •40+ monthly expense line items
- •Every bank account, investment, and retirement account
- •All debts, loans, and credit cards
- •Real property and vehicle values
- •Employment history and education
Where people get stuck
- Blank fields. The form uses legal categories that do not match how people think about their money. People leave sections blank or fill them incorrectly.
- Math errors. The AFI requires monthly totals that must add up. Manual calculation errors are common and can delay your case.
- Missing categories. People forget to include expenses like insurance premiums, childcare, or medical costs, which affects support calculations.
- Time. Gathering all the information and filling the form correctly takes most people 2-3 days. For many straightforward cases, Clarity reduces that to about 30 minutes.
