Forms - Wills and estates

This is a list of instructions, sample forms and other documents that are referred to in this topic. 

You can get blank versions of most of these forms from the Uniform Civil Procedure Rules (UCPR) forms website.

You can also complete and file these forms online using the NSW Supreme, District and Local Courts Online Registry.  

It is important you read the step-by-step guide for each form for information about how and when to use them.  

Check the Uniform Civil Procedure Rules 2005 before using a generative artificial intelligence (AI) program such as ChatGPT to prepare documents for the Local, District or Supreme Court of NSW. These Rules permit AI use in some documents, such as submissions or reports, but you must include a statement that all citations, legal authorities and case law referred to exist and are accurate and relevant to the proceedings. The District Court and the Supreme Court also have Practice Notes which permit AI use for some types of documents, such as chronologies and indexes.

Under the Rules, you must not use AI in your affidavit or witness statement, and these documents must include a statement that AI was not used to generate the content. You must not put any confidential information about your matter into an AI program.  If you are unsure or feel the Court should let you use AI due to exceptional circumstances, get legal advice.
