The Rhode Island Application To Proceed Without Prepayment of Fees and Affidavit is a form used when a person is unable to pay the filing fee for certain court filings. It is also sometimes referred to as an "in form paupers" (IFP) application. This form is used when a person is requesting permission to proceed with a civil action in the Rhode Island Superior Court or District Court without having to pay the filing fee. The form should be filled out completely and accurately to avoid any delays in processing the application. There are two types of Rhode Island Application To Proceed Without Prepayment of Fees and Affidavit forms: the Fee Waiver Request form for the Superior Court and the Fee Waiver Request form for the District Court. The Fee Waiver Request form for the Superior Court is used when seeking permission to proceed with a civil case in the Rhode Island Superior Court without having to pay the filing fee. The Fee Waiver Request form for the District Court is used when seeking permission to proceed with a civil case in the Rhode Island District Court without having to pay the filing fee. Both forms require detailed information about the applicant’s financial situation and income. The form must be signed and notarized, and must include information such as the applicant’s name, address, Social Security number, and other related financial information. Once the form is filled out and submitted, the court will review the application and determine if the applicant qualifies for a fee waiver.
