Official forms and PDF help

Government fillable forms may need Adobe Acrobat Reader rather than a phone's PDF viewer. If a PDF appears blank or says “Please wait”, save it and open it on a computer. The official catalogue is the source for the newest fillable version; the linked BC Laws PDFs show the prescribed text.

For claims that remain in the CRT, start with its own process rather than using a Small Claims Court form.

Do not confuse witness summons and arrest warrant

Form 8 is a party-issued summons to a witness, normally served at least 7 days before attendance under Rule 9. Form 9 is the judge-issued warrant of arrest that Rule 9(7) allows only when a duly summoned witness fails to attend and the other statutory conditions are met. Neither form starts a debt claim.
