The online host application works best in Firefox or Google Chrome browsers.
Once you have started the application, you may complete it in multiple sessions using the application’s “save and continue” feature, which will save your progress, allow you to continue from where you saved, and return to previous sections to make edits. The "save and continue" button is located in the top right ribbon of the application.
When using the "save and continue" function, the system will email you a personalized link. To resume the application, you will use this new link and will not require the initial password.
