Electronic Submissions

For electronic submissions, two reply emails are typically sent. The first is simply an acknowledgement that we received your submission. For uploaded reports, it is sent to the email address given in the submitter’s contact information. For emailed reports, it is sent to the email address from which the submission was sent.

The second is sent after we have successfully processed the report submission. For uploaded reports, it is sent to the email address given in the submitter’s contact information — just like the first email. For emailed reports, it is sent to the email address in the identity.txt that should have been included in the report submission; if there is no identity.txt, the original email address is used instead.

If there are issues with your report that you need to address, you will receive another email, which describes the issues and asks you to correct and resubmit the report.

Paper Reports

Handwritten reports and reports that are mailed in on paper that are not accepted receive a letter that explains the problems with the report.  They are given until the reporting deadline or two weeks to make the corrections.
