How to request more information from an applicant
Ask an applicant for additional information or documents without restarting the screening.
If a screening is missing something, or you need supporting documents, you can ask the applicant to provide more information without starting over.
Steps
- Open the applicant screening.
- Choose the option to request more information or request a document.
- Describe what you need. The applicant receives a message and can respond or upload from their existing application.
- The new information is added to the same screening for your review.
Good to know
- Requesting more information does not require the applicant to redo completed steps.
- Only request information relevant to the tenancy decision, and apply the same requirements consistently across applicants to stay within fair housing practice.
