Report using an offline PDF
If the selected authority permits reporting without an account, you can download the smart PDF of the form you want to use, complete it on your device and upload it later without signing in. You can make copies of the blank form for future reports. Each completed copy must be uploaded and submitted through the reporting portal.
- Select your authority and reporting path.
- Select DOWNLOAD PDF for the relevant form and save the smart PDF. Make copies if you need the form for future reports.
- Open a copy in a compatible PDF application, complete it and save the filled file. The existing guide recommends Adobe Acrobat Reader; compatibility with other applications should be checked against the current form.
- Return to the same reporting portal, select UPLOAD PDF, and upload the completed form.
- Add supporting files if needed, then continue to the submission step.
- Decide whether to provide an email address to receive a link to a read-only copy of the submitted report.
- Select SUBMIT and wait for the on-screen confirmation.
Downloading, completing and uploading a smart PDF is a way to submit a new report. It does not let you modify a report you previously submitted without an account.
