(LSCC)Send copies of the order

Send copies of the order

You'll need

  • The approved order
  • A copy of the order for the other person
  • A copy for BCFMA, if necessary

Pick up the approved order

You must either go to the court registry to pick up your order or provide a self-addressed envelope and ask the clerk to mail it to you. The entered (signed, sealed, and filed) order is your official court order. Be sure to keep a copy of the order for yourself.

Give a copy to the other person

You're responsible for mailing, giving, or emailing a copy of the entered order to the other person. Do this as soon as possible.

If support is included in the order, you might want to send a copy of the entered order to the BC Family Maintenance Agency (BCFMA). BCFMA is a provincial government service that helps people get the maintenance payments they're entitled to.

Learn more about enforcing your support order through BCFMA on the BC government website, or find out how to contact BCFMA.
