Additional Information about the Online Application System
Please be sure that you have all needed documents for the application available in an electronic format, and that each document is a separate file. If you have questions about what documents need to be provided for an application, please contact us.
The payment of the application fee is typically required during the process of submitting an online application, however, it will be required prior to the commencement of formal application processing. For these types of cases, after the submitted documents are reviewed, the assigned case manager will send you an invoice with instructions about how to pay the application fees.
