Due to extensive changes to the forms used for Provincial Court family law matters, many of the example forms previously listed on this page have been removed. We will make updated example forms available at a later time.  
The Provincial Court Family Rules and its forms changed a lot in 2021. The new form numbers, names and descriptions are very different from those before 2021. For example, the old ''Form 6'' (Referral Request) has nothing to do with the new ''Form 6'' (Reply to an Application About a Family Law Matter). Be vigilant and make sure you're not relying on any information about Provincial Court Family Rules and forms from before 2021.
 
'''Tip:''' Before filling out forms from this list, check out the BC Government's ''[https://justice.gov.bc.ca/apply-for-family-order/ Apply for a Family Law Act (FLA) Order]'' service. It could save you time and make applying for an order (including a protection order) or responding to an application much easier.
