Swear or affirm your form
You'll need:
- To swear or affirm that what you've written in your Schedule 1 – Affidavit for Protection Order (Application About a Protection Order) is true.
Take the form (and any attachments) to a clerk at the court registry to swear the affidavit. This is a free service. You can also have a lawyer or notary public swear the affidavit but they’ll likely charge a fee. See Who can swear an affidavit? for more on this.
Take picture identification with you, such as a driver's licence, BC identity card, BC Services Card, or a passport when you go to the courthouse.
