Whether you are a U.S. or International Applicant for the 2025 Awards there are two critical things to remember when working on your application...
First, use the 'Save and Continue' Button in the top right of the browser window when the Application Form is open... the application tells you when that button becomes available.
- When you use 'Save and Continue (later)' button you first get a pop-up asking to confirm your email, as soon as you do, an email will be sent to the email address you confirmed (or changed) giving you a link back to your application.
- Please, please, please find and keep this email.
- If you use it, we can recover the information for you but it takes about 15 minutes for each such recovery request. (It's a manual process, as hard as that is to believe these days.)
- With the link provided in that email you can return to your application at the exact page you last completed.
Second, "Don't Hit the 'Submit' Button" unless you really are completely finished with your application and you are certain you won't need or want to update it before the application deadline.
- Once you 'Submit' your application, it is marked completed in the database.
- It can not be modified any further, even using the return URL in from the Save and Continue email.
- Furthermore, Insightful Accountant can not change the status of a 'Completed' Application back to 'In Progress' (Partial), nor can we modify any other aspects of the completed application form.
- We can only, upon your specific emailed request, 'delete' the entire application so that you can start over preparing a new one.
- So, it's critical you 'don't hit submit' until you are absolutely certain you are completely finished.
Thanks for your participation.
And thanks to our sponsors without whom these awards would not be possible.
