Saving your draft application

If you wish to leave a partially completed application, press 'save and close' and log out. When you log back in and click on the 'My Submissions' link at the top of the screen, you will find a list of any forms you have started or submitted. You can reopen your draft application and start where you left off.

Submitting your application  

You will find a Review and Submit button at the bottom of the Navigation Panel. You need to review your application before you can submit it. 

Once you have reviewed your application you can submit it by clicking on 'Submit' at the top or bottom of the screen or on the navigation panel. You will not be able to submit your application until all the compulsory questions are completed and there are no validation errors. 

Once you have submitted your application, no further editing or uploading of support materials is possible. 

When you submit your application, you will receive a confirmation email with a copy of your submitted form attached. This will be sent to the email you used to register. 

If you do not receive a confirmation of submission email then you should presume that your submission has NOT been submitted. 

Hint: also check the email hasn’t landed in your spam or junk email folder.
