Uploading Requested Evidence from a Message
If a member of staff has requested an evidence file from you, you will be notified with a Message and a new item in the What’s Next section.
To upload the file, you will need to go to the Evidence Summary for the requested file. A link to this summary will be available in the Message Summary window, or you can go to the Evidence tab in My Record to locate it.
The Evidence Details section of the Evidence Summary will have a button to Upload File. Selecting this will open a window where you can enter the following details:
File – Either select this field to open a browser or drag and drop the file onto the field.
Notes – If necessary, you can add any additional notes here.
When you are finished, select Upload to add the file. The staff member who requested the file will receive a message letting them know that you have uploaded a file.
You may also be required to provide a signature for the evidence file, which is explained in the Providing Signatures page.
