Lodging the HR1 form

Hello,<br> I'd like to lodge the HR 1 form (matrimonial rights notice)<br> - Where and how do I lodge it (on-line)? or post it to?&nbsp; (I'm in Reading, Berkshire)<br> <br> - What to put in these sections:&nbsp;<br> Question 6- how do I get the reference? I assume this is the title number (?)<br> Question 10- what is meant by “order under section 33(5) of the Family Law Act”? How do I answer this question?<br> <br> Thank you,<br> <br> Olivia

Hello Olivia - it's a postal application - see link to standard address below<br> Panel 6 - reference - you would create your own reference and it's used mainly by conveyancers who may for example wish to match their submission to their own file reference. As a private individual I suspect you are submitting just the one form and as such can leave that field blank<br> Panel 10 - that is a specific order issued by a court on application. I suspect, as you are asking the question, you have not been to court to obtain such an order and as such you would select NO in panel 10<br> &#160; <p>Here's our generic response to enquires re form HR1 and this may assist if more Qs arise<br> An application for a notice under the provisions of the Family Law Act 1996 must be made in&#160;<a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/notice-of-home-rights-registration-hr1">Form HR1</a>.
