Small Claims Court Documents in Ontario
What the court handles
Ontario’s Small Claims Court hears civil claims up to $35,000, not counting interest and costs. It is designed to be used without a lawyer, which is why the paperwork itself matters so much — most avoidable problems come from documents that are incomplete or improperly sworn.
Documents that need to be sworn
Affidavits filed in support of a motion, affidavits of service showing how and when the other side was served, and statutory declarations all have to be sworn or affirmed in front of a commissioner for taking affidavits. Exhibits attached to an affidavit are marked and initialled at the same appointment.
Where to find the official forms
Ontario publishes the Small Claims Court forms and step-by-step guidance on ontario.ca. Download the current version of the form you need and bring it unsigned — forms do get updated, and an out-of-date version can be refused at filing.
