Navigating through the form 

Each page of the form features a form navigation panel. This links directly to each page of the application form enabling you to navigate between pages. 

 

You can also click 'next page' or 'previous page' on the top or bottom of each page to move forward or backward through the form. 

 

Please ensure you save your form as you go. 

 

Saving a draft 

Your form will save each time you click ‘next page’, ‘previous page’, or any page name on the Form Navigation panel. 

 

If you wish to leave a partially completed form, click 'save and close' and log out. 

 

You can log back in and reopen your draft form to continue where you left off.  

 

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 submissions you have started or submitted. Click the submission number or the arrow icon to expand the list of associated forms and select the form name to continue filling it out. 

 

Downloading your form 

You can download a form, whether in draft or completed, as a PDF. In the ‘My Submissions’ area of your account click on the submission number, then click the red PDF icon beside the form you want to download or, while filling out the form, click on the ‘download PDF' button located at the top and bottom of the last page (review and submit). 

 

Attachments 

You may need to upload/submit attachments to support your application. To do this you need to have the documents saved on your computer, or on a storage device. 

 

You will need to allow enough time for each file to upload before trying to attach another file. Files can be up to 25MB each; however, we do recommend trying to keep files to a maximum of 5MB – the larger the file, the longer the upload time.  

 

Please keep files to standard document formats such as .docx, .xlsx or .pdf. 

 

Collaborating on your submission 

You can collaborate with other people on your submission as long as 

  1. You have created a SmartyFile Organisation and 
  1. Only one person is working on the form at a time. 

 

Ensure you save your form as you go. 

 

Session time-out warning 

For security reasons, your login session will expire after 20 minutes of inactivity. Saving your form or navigating to another page resets the timer. 

 

You’ll be prompted 90 seconds before your session expires, with the option to extend your session or log out. If you don’t respond to the prompt in time, your form will be automatically saved before your session ends. 

 

We recommend saving your form regularly to avoid losing any work, 

 

Submitting your form 

You will find a ‘review and submit’ page listed at the bottom of the ‘form navigation’ panel. You need to review your form before you can submit it. You will not be able to submit your form until all the required fields are completed and there are no validation errors. 

 

Once you have reviewed your form and corrected any errors you can submit it by clicking on the submit button at the top or bottom of the screen. 

 

Once you have submitted your form no further editing or uploading of supporting documents is possible. 

 

When you have successfully submitted your form you will see a confirmation page, and you will receive a confirmation email with a copy of your submitted form attached. This will be sent to the email address you use to login, or the owner of the submission if you are collaborating on the form. 

 

If you don't see a confirmation page or receive a confirmation email then your form has not been successfully submitted. Be sure to check your spam or junk email folder for a confirmation email. 

 

You can return to the My Submissions page of your account to view the submission status of the form.
