How can I apply for it?
You, or a friend on your behalf, can go in person to the [http://www.clicklaw.bc.ca/helpmap/service/1014 Supreme Court Registry] where the divorce is filed with:
#Your court file Numbernumber;
#A completed Requisition ([[Form F17 Requisition (General)|Form F17]]) - some Registries may have copies available at the counter;
#$40 for each certificate. Cash, Interac, and Personal Cheques with 2 pieces of ID are accepted; abd
===Applying by snail mail===
You can also make a written request by sending a letter to the Supreme Court Registry where the divorce order is filed. Include with your letter:
#Your court file Number number (or the full names of both you and your ex-spouse as they appear on the Divorce Order);
#It is helpful if you include a copy of your Divorce Order, but not required. Providing a copy may expedite the court registry's ability to process your request;
#A self-addressed return envelope;
