- Form 1.3 – Originating Claim (Respondent’s Copy)
When completing these forms, please note the following:

The completed forms can be lodged with the Court by email to electroniclodgementIMC@wairc.wa.gov.au. The lodgement fee is $40.00. Once you have lodged your claim, you will usually have 30 days to serve the respondent/s. After you have served the respondent/s, you must lodge an affidavit of service with the Court.
