CCJ's and Payslips

Hi, I was wondering if anybody know's if you get court papers and a creditor tries for a CCJ do you have to provide your payslips to the court?

thanks!

    You only have to provide proof of income, (bank statement usually) if the Judge requests to specificity see it. Usually filling out the income/outgoing sheet is sufficient.

    Only the judge has the power to see proof of income, you never have to show it to the creditor.

    You could have to, the judge could certainly request them if they felt there was any doubt over your income.
    (Put it this way I wouldn't be untruthful in what you say as it would look pretty bad if you are asked for them).

    Most claims are done electronically so if you're offering to pay by instalments you just put your income/expenditure details on the online form and sign (key in your name) to say that the figures are true.

    If it's done through a local court you just do the same process in longhand and post it back. No evidence needs to be sent
