What it uses
Wisconsin has two statewide voluntary forms split by stage of the case: FA-4139V Financial Disclosure Statement for actions affecting the family, and the narrower FA-4138V Income and Expense Statement for post-judgment proceedings.
Which form, when
Stage of the case, not income. FA-4139V is the comprehensive disclosure (assets, liabilities, income, expenses) that Wis. Stat. § 767.127(1) requires 'on standard forms required by the court'. FA-4138V is the 'Income and Asset Statement for post-judgment proceedings' (court form listing). Both are marked 'Voluntary form', so a county may require its own.
Filed or exchanged
Filed with the court within 90 days after service of the summons or the filing of a joint petition, or when the court orders, and updated on the record to the hearing date (Wis. Stat. § 767.127(2)).

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