How long does it take to register as an ECF filer for Appellate CM/ECF?
When you register through the PACER Service Center to become an efiler, the registration information is forwarded to each circuit in which you registered. The court will review each request so processing times will vary. You will receive an email confirmation from the PACER Service Center when your registration request is processed that will indicate the disposition of your request. If there is an emergency situation and you need to file immediately, contact the clerk’s office for assistance and direction.
