What date is used to determine assets for equitable distribution in PA?

Hello and thank you in advance for any advice you may be able to offer. I’ve been separated for over two years. We both have assets, but mine are much higher. Our equitable distribution is (hopefully) approaching soon. My question is fairly simple—are assets to be divided measured at the date of separation or how is that date determined? I’m continually asked to resend updated financial documents for the same accounts, which costs me more money every time. My financial situation is quite different than it was two years ago, and some of my accounts have gone up considerably in value. The home value has also gone up a lot, but it’s in my name. I’m guessing this growth needs to be shared but figured I’d ask since I got a vague answer from my attorney.

The answer is kinda wishy-washy. When they ask for accounts, I’d suggest giving them info from the date of separation. If they push back hard, you can cave and give the current info. Good luck with the house!

Thanks! I want to be careful about throwing my attorney under the bus because I know some legal issues don’t have clear answers, so this is helpful.

Following as I’d like to hear more on this too!
