When to use a different process

Do not file MC-031 alone. MC-030 is a separate declaration form with additional court/contact fields; MC-025 is a general attachment with an item reference. Choose the document that fits the main filing, not just the largest text area.

Faye starts with this question: Which main court form or paper will this declaration be attached to?

Answer in English, Spanish or Chinese. Faye maps confirmed facts to the editable fields of this English original as you answer. You can skip, correct or undo changes. Review all pages; signatures and any noneditable certification areas require the appropriate person.
