Provide the Supporting Files

The Supporting Files screen provides a way for you to attach supporting documentation to the application. Follow the instructions on the screen to upload each document. The list of files is split into required supporting files and additional supporting files. You must upload the required supporting files before you submit your application. However, even after submitting your application, you might need to provide other files requested by the agency as they review and qualify your application.
