The Board considers an application “filed” when it is received in the Board’s offices. However, if the envelope containing your application bears a postmark which is on or before the deadline and has sufficient postage, AND your Application is signed and notarized and otherwise complete, it will be considered filed as of the date the postmark shows it was mailed.
For your application to be considered filed, it must be accompanied by the Authorization and Release forms and all applicable fees in collected funds. See Rule .0101(4).
After your application has been received and is being processed, you will be notified if there is any supporting documentation missing or if your answers to any questions are incomplete. The additional information should be furnished to the Board immediately.
