PER CURIAM.
Pursuant to the procedures this Court established in Amendments to the Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure and Family Law Forms, 810 So.2d 1 (Fla.2000), this Court has internally reviewed the Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Forms and has decided to amend certain forms to reflect 2002 legislative changes to sections 741.30 and 741.2902, Florida Statutes (2001). We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 2(a), Fla. Const.
The 2002 Florida Legislature enacted amendments to Florida Statutes sections 741.30 and 741.2902 to prohibit filing fees in domestic violence actions. See eh.2002-55, §§ 11-12, Laws of Fla. Therefore, consistent with these changes in the law, we amend Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Forms 12.980(b) (Petition for Injunction for Protection Against Domestic Violence), 12.980(d)(1) (Temporary Injunction for Protection Against Domestic Violence With Minor Child(ren)), 12.980(d)(2) (Temporary Injunction for Protection Against Domestic Violence Without Minor Child(ren)), 12.980(e)(1) (Final Judgment of Injunction for Protection Against Domestic Violence With Minor Child(ren)), 12.980(e)(2) (Final Judgment of Injunction for Protection Against Domestic Violence Without Minor Child(ren)), and 12.980(f) (Order of Dismissal of Temporary Injunction for Protection) to eliminate any language regarding filing fees in domestic violence actions. Further, Florida Su[73]*73preme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.980(a) (Affidavit and Motion for Waiver of Fees for Petition for Injunction for Protection) currently addresses filing fees for cases that involve either domestic violence or repeat violence. See § 784.046, Fla. Stat. (2001) (action by victim of repeat violence for protective injunction). With this opinion, and consistent with the changes in the law, we amend form 12.980(a) to henceforth apply only to actions involving repeat violence. Thus, the form shall be retitled “Affidavit and Motion for Waiver of Fees for Petition for Injunction for Protection Against Repeat Violence.” The forms are amended as set forth in the Appendix to this opinion, effective for immediate use.
We express no opinion as to the correctness or applicability of the forms or on the substance of the amendments. This opinion and the forms discussed herein may be accessed and downloaded from this Court’s website at www.flcourts.org.
It is so ordered.

[74]*74[[Image here]]
[75]*75INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLORIDA SUPREME COURT APPROVED FAMILY LAW FORM 12.980(b), PETITION FOR INJUNCTION FOR PROTECTION AGAINST DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
If you are a victim of any act of domestic violence or have reasonable cause to believe that you are in imminent danger of becoming a victim of domestic violence, you can use this form to ask the court for a protective order prohibiting domestic violence. Because you are making a request to the court, you are called the petitioner. The person whom you are asking the court to protect you from is called the respondent. Domestic violence includes: assault, aggravated assault, battery, aggravated battery, sexual assault, sexual battery, stalking, aggravated stalking, kidnapping, false imprisonment, or any other criminal offense resulting in physical injury or death to petitioner by any of petitioner’s family or household members who are residing in the same single dwelling unit with petitioner.
The domestic violence laws only apply to your situation if the respondent is your spouse, former spouse, related to you by blood or marriage, living with you now or has lived with you in the past (if you are or were living as a family), or the other parent of your child(ren), whether or not you have ever been married or ever lived together. If the respondent is not one of the above, you should look at Petition for Injunction for Protection Against Repeat Violence, ^ □ Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.980(g), to determine if your situation will qualify for an injunction for protection against repeat violence.
If you are under the age of eighteen and you have never been married or had the disabilities of nonage removed by a court, then one of your parents or your legal guardian must sign this petition with you.
This form should be typed or printed in black ink. You should complete this form (giving as much detail as possible) and sign it in front of a notary public or the clerk of the circuit court in the county where you live. The clerk will take your completed petition to a judge. You should keep a copy for your records. If you have any questions or need assistance completing this form, the clerk or family law intake staff will help you.
What should I do if the judge grants my petition?
If the facts contained in your petition convince the judge that you are a victim of domestic violence or that an imminent danger of domestic violence exists, the judge will sign an immediate Temporary Injunction for Protection Against Domestic Violence with Minor Child(ren), Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.980(d)(1). A temporary injunction is issued without notice to the respondent. The clerk will give your petition, the temporary injunction, and any other papers filed with your petition to the sheriff or other law enforcement officer for personal service on the respondent. The temporary injunction will take effect immediately after the respondent is served with a copy of it. It lasts until a full hearing can be held or for a period of 15 days, whichever comes first. The court may extend the temporary injunction beyond 15 days for a good reason, which may include failure to obtain service on the respondent.
The temporary injunction is issued “ex parte.” This means that the judge has considered only the information presented by one side — YOU. The temporary injunction gives a date that you should ap[76]*76pear in court for a hearing.- At.that hearing, you will be expected to testify about the facts in your petition. The respondent will be given the opportunity to testify at this hearing, also. At the hearing, the judge will decide whether to issue a Final Judgment of Injunction for Protection Against Domestic Violence with Minor Child(ren) (After Notice), % □ Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.980(e)(1), which will remain in effect for a specific time period or until modified or dissolved by the court. If you and/or the respondent do not appear, the temporary injunction may be continued in force, extended, or dismissed, and/or additional orders may be granted, including the imposition of court costs. If the judge signs a temporary or final injunction, the clerk will provide you with the necessary copies. Make sure that you keep one certified copy of the injunction with you at all times!
What can I do if the judge denies my petition?
If your petition is denied on the grounds that it appears to the court that no imminent danger of domestic violence exists, the court will set a full hearing, at the earliest possible time, on your petition. The respondent will be notified by personal service of your petition and the hearing. If your petition is denied, you may: amend your petition by filing a Supplemental Affidavit in Support of Petition for Injunction for Protection Against Domestic Violence or Repeat Violence, Florida Family Law Form 12.980(h); attend the hearing and present facts that support your petition; and/or dismiss your petition.
Where can I look for more information?
Before proceeding, you should read “General Information for Self Represented Litigants” found at the beginning of these forms. The words that are in “bold underline are defined in that section. The clerk of the circuit court or family law intake staff will help you complete any necessary- domestic violence forms and can give you information about local domestic violence victim assistance programs, shelters, and other related services. You may also call the Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-500-1119. For further information, see chapter 741, Florida Statutes, and rule 12.610, Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure.
With this form you may also need to file the following:
• Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Act (UCCJA) Affidavit, % □ Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(d), must be completed and filed if you are asking the court to determine issues of temporary custody or visitation with regards to a minor ehild(ren).
• Notice of Social Security Number, % □ Florida Supreme Court Approved Family Law Form 12.902(j), must be completed and filed if you are'asking the court to determine issues of temporary child support.
