Here is a resource that might be helpful. It's from the NYS Unified Court System: 
 
What to Say in a Fee Waiver Request 
 
The Affidavit given to the Court to support your fee waiver request should include the following information: 
 
- state that you are unable to pay the costs, fees and expenses needed to start or defend the case (or to start or 
  answer an appeal); 
- explain the nature of the case, tell the court what the case is about; 
- include facts about your case that show there is merit to your claims; 
- include a detailed explanation of the amount and sources of your income; 
- include a detailed list of your property with its value; 
- indicate whether any other person would benefit from any award in your case, and if so, whether that person is 
  unable to pay the costs fees and expenses. 
 
Different Judges require different proof to decide your fee waiver request. So, the court may ask you to submit additional items to prove you do not have the money to pay your court costs.
