The intention to proceed guide uses the retained current 2024 Rules and maintained official practice directions, including the September 2026 updates. Rule 63 separately preserves qualifying proceedings begun or filed before December 2, 2024 unless otherwise directed. Non-portal filing alone does not establish that transition.

File notice of intention to proceed within 14 days of the grant.

For intention to proceed, Rule 6(4)(a) carries an act done at the Registry to the next open day when its last day is closed. Rule 6(4)(b) uses midnight in the place where the person acts.
