Applications in UN1

An application for a property adjustment order in financial remedy on divorce proceedings can be protected by a UN1.

Is it necessary to have applied in form A (that is HMCTS form A notice of intention to proceed with an application for financial remedy) to proceed with this UN1 application? The benefit of this would be that form A specifically lists the   relevant properties; or where the applicant for the UN1 is also the divorce applicant, is it sufficient just to attach the divorce petition as long as they have ticked the box on the petition that says they apply for a financial remedy order? My understanding is the latter is the application itself, rather than the form A, and gives the court the jurisdiction; but the petition won't name the properties concerned.

In short - do you want a form A or will a petition do, to evidence a property adjustment application?

Most UN1 applications don't rely on or require supporting documentary evidence
