What is FL-160?
Multipurpose Judicial Council form to list property, debts, and a proposed division. Each filer fills out FL-160 SEPARATELY for community / quasi-community property and for separate property; the two cannot be combined on one form. Used three ways: (a) attached to a Petition (FL-100) or Response (FL-120) to itemize property in the case, (b) served on the other spouse as part of disclosure (FL-140) in lieu of FL-142 Schedule of Assets and Debts, (c) attached to a Request to Enter Default (FL-165) or Judgment (FL-180) to record a proposed property division.
What happens if you miss the deadline: If FL-160 is missing where the court expects one (commonly with a default judgment or a stipulated judgment that includes a property division), the clerk usually rejects the judgment packet, and any default or judgment entered without proper disclosure may be set aside under Family Code section 2107.
How to file
- Filing fee
- $0 for FL-160 itself. The underlying case has its own fee (FL-100 dissolution petition is $435-$450 in most CA counties; FW-001 fee waiver available).
- Filing method
- in-person, mail, efile (county-specific), served on other party (when used as disclosure)
- Filing deadline
- Use-case dependent. (a) Attached to FL-100 / FL-120: filed with the petition / response, no independent deadline. (b) Used as preliminary disclosure under Family Code section 2104: served on the other spouse within 60 days of filing the petition (petitioner) or response (respondent); the time may be extended by written agreement or by court order. (c) Used as final disclosure under Family Code section 2105: served before or at the time the parties enter into an agreement for resolution of property issues, or no later than 45 days before the first trial date. (d) Attached to FL-180 judgment or FL-165 default: filed with that form. Form text page 4: 'Property Declaration is a multipurpose form, which may be filed with the court as an attachment to a Petition or Response or served on the other party to comply with disclosure requirements in place of a Schedule of Assets and Debts (form FL-142). Courts may also require a party to file a Property Declaration as an attachment to a Request to Enter Default (form FL-165) or Judgment (form FL-180).'
- How to serve
- When used for preliminary or final disclosure: served on the other spouse (or the spouse's attorney) by mail or personal delivery, then FL-141 is filed with the court to prove service. When used as a petition / response / judgment / default attachment: no separate service of FL-160 itself; it travels with the underlying paper.
- Wet signature
- Yes, sign in pen after printing.
- Notarization
- No
- Original and copies
- 1 original to file (when filed) + 1 copy for each party served. When served as disclosure, the original goes to the receiving spouse and the filer keeps a copy.
