Important Notice – From 31 October 2025

When filing an Application for Consent Orders on the Commonwealth Courts Portal, the following documents will be required:

  • Proposed minutes of consent signed by all parties (on each page) in PDF format

  • Proposed minutes of consent in an unsigned Word (.docx) format

  • The Application for Consent Orders form, along with any other required documents, depending on the orders sought

This change is being implemented to improve the visual quality of published orders and reduce processing time, giving parties quicker access to published orders. You will not be able to submit an Application for Consent Orders without providing both:

  • a signed PDF version, and

  • an identical unsigned Word version of the Proposed Orders.

You will also be required to confirm on the court portal (via checkbox) that the text in both documents is identical.

Need a Word version of your amica orders?

Email amica@lsc.sa.gov.au to request a Word version of your proposed orders.

This does not apply if you are filing in Western Australia

This document sets out your money and property agreements. This includes things like real estate, vehicles, savings and debts. This agreement does not include superannuation splitting. This is not the same as a binding financial agreement (BFA) and is not legally binding.

Application for Consent Orders

If you've reached an agreement and want to make it official with consent orders, you can create the necessary documents for filing with the court. If you're specifically looking to split your superannuation, this is the form you'll need. Please note in amica you can only do an application for consent orders for property. Parenting is not included in the amica application for consent orders.
