OCOrange County Building Permits
Irvine permit preparation

Irvine permit forms without the form-hunting.

Tell Form-O-Matic what you are doing and answer guided questions. For supported Irvine projects, the service prepares applicable City PDFs, identifies online-only follow-up steps, and gives you a project package to review before filing.

How Form-O-Matic makes Irvine easier

The project comes first, not the PDF.

You should not have to discover which field on which form asks for the same address you already typed three times. Our workflow gathers reusable project information once, asks the form-specific questions in context, and builds a package around the project.

Guided load calculations

EV and electrical-service workflows collect the inputs needed for supported calculations instead of handing you a blank worksheet.

Form + online workflow

Irvine's online-only declarations and current submission steps are identified separately rather than being replaced with unofficial copies.

Safe boundaries

We do not guess structural design, panel-directory field conditions, professional certifications, or signatures that must come from you or a licensed professional.

Independent private service: Form-O-Matic / Orange County Building Permits is not the City of Irvine. Official forms and filing services remain available directly from Irvine; our fee is for private software-assisted preparation of supported paperwork.
Project-specific permit help

Irvine building permit help by project.
