(LSIC)Copy and serve the documents

You'll need

• Your completed documents:
  • Unfiled Notice of Application (Form F31)
  • Sworn of affirmed Affidavit (Form F30) to support the application (with any attachments)
  • Any other supporting affidavits or documents that you intend to refer to at the hearing, but that haven't already been filed
• An Affidavit of Ordinary Service (Form F16)

Make copies

Make three copies of all your documents:

• One copy is for you
• One copy is served on the other person
• One copy is for the registry when you file

Keep the originals somewhere safe.

Serve the documents on the other person

Serve the documents on the other person, including the unfiled Notice of Application and any sworn or affirmed affidavits. 

You can serve these documents by ordinary service. This means that you can:

• leave the documents at the other person's address for service (the address they put on their court documents, such as their Notice of Application),
• mail the documents by regular post to the other person's address for service, or
• email or fax the documents, if the other person provided an email address or fax number as part of their address for service.

See Serve Supreme Court documents by ordinary service for more information on serving documents and help with filling out an Affidavit of Ordinary Service (Form F16).

If the other person doesn't attend the hearing, the Affidavit of Ordinary Service will prove to the judge that you served the documents in time.
