Make copies of the documents
You'll need:
- your completed Application About a Family Matter (Form 3)
- your completed Financial Statement (Form 4), if required
- all the documents that relate to your completed forms
If you fill out the forms online, you can print all the copies you need. If you download the forms and fill them out by hand, you'll have to make photocopies of everything.
Make four sets of the documents you've prepared
- The original forms (with any attachments) for the court
- A set for you
- A set for the other person
- A set for the person who will serve the documents to the other person
You only need to fill out the schedules that apply to your situation. Some registries want you to give them only the pages that you've filled in. But other registries want the entire forms, even the pages you've left blank. It's a good idea to contact your registry to check which pages they want before you file your forms.
