Applications

An “application” in IIS is any request that needs to be filled in, paid for, and reviewed — for example exam entry or membership progression. This is the simple, start-to-finish version of how it works.

The application journey in 4 steps

Every application follows the same simple path, no matter what type it is:

1. 1. Start

   You open a New Application and pick the type you need.

2. 2. Fill & Preview

   You fill in the form, then check everything on a preview screen before paying.

3. 3. Pay

   You complete payment, which submits the application for review.

4. 4. Track

   You watch its status change from Submitted to Approved (or Rejected) in My Applications.

Step by step: submitting an application

1. Open My Applications

   In the sidebar, select Applications to expand it, then select My Applications.

2. Start a new application

   Select New Application and choose the type you want to submit.

3. Fill in the form

   Complete every required field for that application type. You can usually save and come back later — it’s kept as a Draft until you submit.

4. Preview before you pay

   Use the preview screen to double-check names, dates, and amounts render correctly. This is your last chance to fix a typo before payment.

5. Pay and submit

   Complete payment to finalize the submission. The application moves out of Draft and into the review queue — see Payment Status for how to check the payment itself.

Tracking your applications

The My Applications list shows every application you have started, with its current status. Full details on reading this list live on the My Applications page — the short version:

• Draft — started but not paid/submitted yet. Select Continue to finish it.
• Submitted / Under Review — paid and waiting for ICAB staff to review it.
• Approved — accepted. No further action needed.
• Rejected — not accepted. Open it to see why, and start a new one if you need to reapply.
