At the end of your interview, click the "Download" button. Follow the instructions in the window that appears. Only click the download button once! Clicking it repeatedly will slow down the process.
How long will it take? At least 15 minutes. It takes a lot of computer power to get your paperwork ready. When several people try to download their paperwork at the same time, it could take about an hour before your papers are ready. Look for an email from MyCase to see when your papers are ready.
Once you get the email, log back in to MyPaperwork and download your papers. Make sure you download your papers within 7 days. After that, they will be deleted and you will need to start the download process again.

OCAP is our current system to help people with their papers. We are slowly moving things out of OCAP and into MyPaperwork.
Right now, only new divorces are in MyPaperwork. If you started your divorce case on or before September 28, 2024, you will need to log back into to OCAP to finish your case. Otherwise, use MyPaperwork.
