STATEMENTS MADE TO THE COURT UNDER OATH OR AFFIRMATION. I swear or affirm that the information in this application is true and correct. I make this statement under the penalty of prosecution for perjury if it is determined that I did not tell the truth.
I am requesting a deferral/waiver of any unpaid fees and/or costs in my case.
The basis for the request is:
1. [ ] DEFERRAL:
A. [ ] I receive governmental assistance from the state/federal program(s) marked below:
[ ] Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) [ ] Food Stamps
OR
B. [ ] My income is insufficient or is barely sufficient to meet the daily essentials of life, and includes no allotment that could be budgeted for the fees and costs that are required to gain access to the court.
NOTE: To determine whether income is insufficient or barely sufficient, the court will review your income and expenses. Among the factors the court may consider are:
1. Whether your gross income as computed on a monthly basis is 150% or less of the current federal poverty level. Gross monthly income includes your share of community property income if available to you.
2. If your income is greater than 150% of the poverty level, but you have proof of extraordinary expenses (including medical expenses and costs of care for elderly or disabled family members) or other expenses that the court finds are extraordinary that reduce your gross monthly income to at or below 150% of the poverty level.
OR
C. [ ] I do not have the money to pay court filing fees and/or costs now. I can pay the filing
fees and/or costs at a later date. Explain.
2. [ ] WAIVER:
A. [ ] I am permanently unable to pay. My income and liquid assets are insufficient or barely sufficient to meet the daily essentials of life and unlikely to change in the foreseeable future.
B. [ ] I receive government assistance from the federal program Supplemental Security Income (SSI).

If you submit the Application and Financial Questionnaire in person, you MUST sign it in front of the court clerk; if you submit the form by mail or by a third party, you MUST sign it in front of a notary public.
