Quincy states that no appointment is necessary, that both parties must appear together unless one is active duty military, and that licenses are valid for 60 days. Brookline and Milton both require a prior appointment for the intention filing; Brookline books through an online scheduler and Milton states intentions are scheduled by prior appointment only. Milton also publishes two statewide facts used above: witnesses are not required, and you do not have to be a resident of Massachusetts.
