Parenting Plan (Ontario)

How it works

What you will fill in

• Does any of these apply to you?
• First parent's full name
• Second parent's full name
• Children: names and dates of birth
• Decision-making responsibility (school, health, religion, activities)
• Which parent decides which areas?
• Regular parenting time
• Holidays and special days
• Travel outside Canada with the children
• Date of this document

Good to know

• Courts decide based only on the best interests of the child. A fair plan you both sign is usually followed.
• Under the Divorce Act and Ontario's Children's Law Reform Act, a parent who wants to relocate must give at least 60 days' written notice.
• Free help: Family Law Information Centres at Ontario courthouses, and subsidized mediation through Ontario family courts.

Help in your language

Every question comes with help like this. For example, “Does any of these apply to you?”:

English: If one does, get legal help before you sign. If you are afraid, call the Assaulted Women's Helpline: 1-866-863-0511.

اردو: اگر ان میں سے کوئی بات ہو تو دستخط سے پہلے وکیل سے چیک کروائیں۔

ਪੰਜਾਬੀ: ਜੇ ਇਹਨਾਂ ਵਿੱਚੋਂ ਕੋਈ ਗੱਲ ਹੈ ਤਾਂ ਦਸਤਖ਼ਤ ਤੋਂ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਵਕੀਲ ਤੋਂ ਚੈੱਕ ਕਰਵਾਓ।

हिन्दी: अगर इनमें से कोई बात है तो दस्तख़त से पहले वकील से जाँच करवाएँ।

Français: Si l'une s'applique, faites vérifier le document par un avocat avant de signer. Vous pouvez quand même faire le document complet ici.
