Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Enforcement Act Affidavit

If divorcing spouses have minor kids and live in different states, they should also fill out the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) Affidavit. They must provide information about children for the court to determine the jurisdiction for child custody matters. Typically, a UCCJEA Affidavit Michigan form contains children’s names and current addresses, information about previous custody orders, any history of child abuse or domestic violence, pending proceedings that can affect court decisions, and details about other parties who have custody or visitation rights with the child.
