Filed with the court, or given to the other side?

Attachment A is filed with the divorce complaint. The mediation forms go to the mediation program, not the case file, though no rule saying so was found.

The rule in full, with its sourcesExactly what we confirmed, with the rule each part comes from.
What it uses
No court-filed DC financial statement or income/expense affidavit was found on dccourts.gov; the official forms are the divorce complaint's Attachment A (a checklist of property/debt categories) and the Multi-Door Division's two-part Family Mediation Financial Form (Income; Assets with debts and monthly budget).
Which form, when
Attachment A goes with a Complaint for Divorce that asks the court to divide marital property or assign marital debt; the Family Mediation Financial Form is for cases sent to Multi-Door family mediation. No rule found that prescribes a general financial statement.
Filed or exchanged
Attachment A is filed with the divorce complaint (it is a Domestic Relations Branch caption form signed under penalty of perjury). The mediation forms go to the Multi-Door mediation program (caption: 'Multi-Door Number', 'Case Manager', 'Mediator'), not to the case file; no rule text on this was found (unverified).

This is general information, not legal advice. Forms change, so check with the court before you file.
