To provide greater transparency, Historical Submissions will include a Rejection reason column for rejected applications. You can also view any rejection comments that were recorded when the application was rejected. This update makes it easier to understand application outcomes, answer applicant questions, and review historical decisions without searching for information outside the application record.

Why This Matters

  • Quickly understand why an application was rejected.

  • Reference recorded comments when discussing past decisions.

  • Support consistent communication with applicants and internal stakeholders.

  • Review historical application outcomes more efficiently.
