Subscription service to electronic forms
The OACIQ provides real estate brokers with electronic forms accessible via the InstanetFormsTM platform. It is always possible to print these forms as needed – the use of NCR paper is recommended in this case.
For the current year, the subscription cost is $75 (before taxes) for unlimited access from May 1, 2025, to April 30, 2026. InstanetFormsTM fees are detailed here and vary depending on the month in which you wish to start or resume your practice.
When a real estate broker carries out residential real estate transactions, he must subscribe to InstanetFormsTM electronic forms to access current versions of brokerage forms.
Subscription renewal
The subscription to InstanetFormsTM electronic forms expires on April 30 of each year. To avoid any service interruption, real estate brokers must renew their subscription before this deadline.
New subscription
Whether or not they are registered with Centris, real estate brokers are encouraged to subscribe to take advantage of the many benefits offered by the OACIQ electronic brokerage forms.
The subscription gives access to 62 electronic forms available in French and English:
- · 30 mandatory forms
- 25 recommended forms
- 7 administrative forms
Allow about two hours after subscribing to access the forms via InstanetFormsTM, as this is the time required to perform the usual checks and create your account.
Every real estate broker subscribed to the service may also register, at no charge, up to three members of his administrative staff, who will have access to InstanetFormsTM using a personal code provided by Centris®.
To familiarize yourself with the use of electronic forms, Centris® offers free training on the InstanetForms™ tool. In addition, the Professional Practices Guide– Main residential real estate brokerage forms provides many explanations about brokerage forms content.
