The Maintenance Enforcement Program (MEP) can enforce support agreements made by persons who
have completed this form as long as all of these conditions have been met:
¾
the signed agreement is filed by one of the parties with the Alberta Court of Queen’s Bench,
¾
notice of filing is given to the other party,
¾
an sworn affidavit (called an Affidavit of Service) is filed with the Court of Queen’s Bench giving
details of how this notice was provided, and

Part 1 – How to Complete Your Maintenance Enforcement Support Agreement
General Instructions

need to complete the “Action No.” or “Judicial District of” blanks at the top of the first and last
pages. The court clerk will fill these parts in when you file your agreement in the Court of
Queen’s Bench. Filing will be discussed in Part 3 of these instructions.
¾
Do not cross off clauses from this agreement. If any section does not apply to your situation,
write “N/A” in the space provided.

partner support (the debtor) on the line followed by “the Payor”.
Number 2 – Type of Maintenance to Be Paid

spousal or adult interdependent partner support, check off box ‘a’.
If there is an earlier Maintenance Enforcement Support Agreement between the two of you that you wish
to replace, check off box ‘b’. Then fill in the requested details of the earlier agreement.
If there is an earlier Maintenance Enforcement Support Agreement between the two of you and you want
MEP to enforce both the earlier agreement and this new one, check off box ‘c’ and fill in the details of the
earlier agreement.
Number 4 – Guideline Income
Fill in both parties’ annual guideline income. Normally, this is the gross annual income from all sources
(see line 150 of the tax return).
The Family Law Information Centres provide help on how to decide what amount to use for the guideline
incomes. See the “List of Resources” section at the end of these instructions.
Number 5(a) – Amount of Base Child Support
Fill in the amount of base child support to be paid to the Recipient each month (the table amount under

details.
Number 6 – Adjustment of Child Support When a Child Becomes Ineligible
The Child Support Guideline table sets out the amount of support to be paid for all of the children – not an

longer need support.
Fill in the amount of child support you expect MEP to collect if one or more of the children stops being
eligible for maintenance in the future. You can use the Federal Child Support Guidelines to set the new
support amount, or agree on a different amount.

If you have agreed that the payor will pay a specific amount for additional expenses, but you do not want to
break it down, you can write “n/a” across number 7(a)(ii)
Number 7(b) – Lump Sum or Annual Additional Expenses
If the additional expenses for your children are to be paid once only (lump sum) or once each year
(annual), check off this box. Some examples of additional expenses that might be paid only once, or
once each year, are tuition costs, glasses or contact lenses, sports equipment or musical instruments.
Note that lump sum or annual expenses can be paid in addition to ongoing monthly expenses.
Fill out the first name of each child for whom lump sum or annual expenses are to be paid. Describe what
the lump sum or annual expenses for each child are for and the amount to be paid for each child. If an
expense is a one-time lump sum payment, check off this box and fill in the date on which the lump sum
payment is to be made. If the expenses are to be paid once each year, check off this box and fill in the
date of the annual payment. The expenses for each child must be listed separately.

If you would like spousal or adult interdependent partner support to stop for a particular reason instead of
on a specific date, check off box ‘b’ and fill in the reason. (For example, “Spousal support will stop when
the Recipient graduates from university.”) Please be as clear as possible.
Number 11 – Lump Sum Spousal or Adult Interdependent Partner Support
If spousal or adult interdependent partner support is to be paid in a single lump sum, or if a lump sum is to

The Recipient and the Payor sign all 4 copies in front of their witness(es) and print their names in the
space provided. The witness(es) then sign all 4 copies where indicated, write in the date on which they
signed and print their full name in the space provided.
After the agreement is signed, the witness(es) must complete the Affidavit of Execution for the person
whom they witnessed sign the agreement. If one witness was used for both the Recipient and the Payor,

swear an oath (or affirm) that they saw the Recipient or the Payor sign the agreement.
The Family Law Information Centre can commission the Affidavit of Execution for the witness(es). The
Family Law Information Centre staff CANNOT act as witness for the agreement.

Part 3 – How to File Your Agreement with the Court
Once your agreement (including the sworn Affidavits of Execution) is completed, you will need to file it
with the Alberta Court of Queen’s Bench and provide a filed copy to the other party. Only one party
needs to file the agreement with the court and either the Recipient or the Payor can do this.
First complete the last page of the agreement (page 6 of 6) with your name, address for service, phone
number and fax number if applicable.
If you already have a Queen’s Bench action number from a court action you have started (such as a
divorce action), fill in the action number and judicial district on this last page and in the upper right hand
corner of the first page of the agreement.
Take the 4 original signed copies of your agreement to the clerk at the Queen’s Bench counter. The clerk
will stamp all of the documents and keep one original for the court’s files. The remaining 3 original signed
copies will be returned to you.
There is no fee for filing your agreement with the court.
Make one photocopy of the filed Agreement.
Part 4 – How to Serve Notice That the Agreement Has Been Filed with the Court
The Maintenance Enforcement Act states that the party who filed the agreement with Queen’s Bench to
serve notice of this filing on the other party. This notice can be a letter stating that the agreement has
been filed, along with a filed copy of the agreement. A blank Notice of Filing form letter is attached to
these instructions. Complete the letter and make one copy.
The letter and a filed copy of the agreement (with original signatures) must be served on the other party.
These can be served by being:
¾ hand-delivered to the other party, or
¾ sent to the other party by ordinary mail, registered mail, priority mail or courier to the address
that the party listed in number 13 of the agreement.
The documents may be served on the other party by you, by a friend, or by a process server. Process
servers are listed in the yellow pages of the phone book.
Part 5 – Completing and Filing the Affidavit of Service
The person who serves the letter and agreement must complete an Affidavit of Service to explain how the
other party was served.
A blank Affidavit of Service form is attached to these instructions for your use. Fill in the blanks as
instructed on the form, including the back page.
Attach the photocopy of the filed agreement just before the back page and mark it as Exhibit ‘A’.
Make 1 copy of the Affidavit of Service, including the agreement attached as Exhibit “A”
Take the sworn Affidavit of Service and the copy to the courthouse for filing. Give them to the clerk at the
Queen’s Bench counter, who keep the original Affidavit of Service for the court’s files. The remaining
copy will be stamped “filed” and returned to you.

Maintenance Enforcement Support Agreement
Frequently Asked Questions
Why must I use this form and not another one?
The Maintenance Enforcement Act allows MEP to enforce Alberta maintenance agreements as long as
they meet the requirements of the Maintenance Enforcement Regulation. This standardized agreement
form was created for the benefit of MEP’s clients. By using this form, clients make sure that the
maintenance clauses are clear and that MEP will be able to assist them in enforcement.
Do I need a lawyer to help me complete this agreement?
You do not have to have a lawyer complete your agreement. However, you may wish to see a lawyer for
advice to make sure that your rights and the rights of your children are fully protected. Or, if you do not
think you can complete the agreement on your own, you can hire a lawyer to do it for you.
Can the staff at the MEP office or the court house help me complete a maintenance
agreement?
MEP and court staff cannot help you complete the agreement. If your income is low, you may be able to
get some help from the Child Support Services division of Human Resources and Employment.
Court staff cannot witness your agreement but can act as a Commissioner for Oaths.
What does the term “base child support” mean?
Base child support is the monthly amount of child support to be paid to the Recipient that does not include
any monthly, annual or lump sum payments for special or extraordinary expenses (such as daycare or
medical costs). This amount is usually the table amount as set by the Child Support Guidelines.
The total child support amount includes the base amount plus any amount for special or extraordinary
expenses. You can get more information on the Child Support Guidelines from the Family Law
Information Centre.
Can we change our court order by completing this form?
No. Only a court order can change (vary) another court order.
I have an agreement under the old Parentage and Maintenance Act. How do I change it?
You cannot use this form to change an agreement made under the Parentage and Maintenance Act.
If the two of you agree on a new amount, you can enter into a Consent Order. The Family Law
Information Centre has information that will help you prepare a consent order. Or, if you were on public
assistance at the time the old agreement was signed, you can get help to do a different kind of agreement
from Human Resources and Employment’s Child Support Services office.

We want to change our Maintenance Enforcement Support Agreement. How do we do
this?
There are two ways to change your agreement. The first is by signing and registering a new agreement
with MEP. The new agreement must indicate that it is replacing or supplementing the earlier agreement.
It is best if the new agreement replaces the earlier agreement rather than supplementing it – that way
there is no confusion as to which agreement to follow.
The second way to change an agreement is by going to court and getting an order dealing with the issues
of child, spousal and/or adult interdependent partner support. The Family Law Information Centre has
information that can help you go to court.
