Working with Linked Permits

Use the Linked Permits page to view all the permits that are linked to your permit application. If the intake form for the application collected the primary permit or subapplications, then the Linked Permits page initially lists those multiple applications provided during the intake process.

The permit detail displays the Linked Permits page only if the source permit is the primary permit or it is a subapplication that is linked to a primary permit. Applicants and agency staff use this page to manage the application links.

Applicants and agency staff can create new subapplications from the primary permit application that they are working with. Click the Apply for Subapplication action from any of the following locations:

  • Header of the permit application detail pages: Click the Actions menu and click the Apply for Subapplication option.

Note:

The Apply for Subapplication action is available only for primary permits and for permits that are neither primary nor subapplication. After such a standalone permit is marked as a subapplication to a primary permit, this action is not available.

Here's how to apply for a subapplication:

  1. On the Apply for subapplication drawer, review the details in the Copy From section and enter values:

The new subapplications are automatically linked to the source primary permit. You can click on the record to open the application, make changes, review, and submit.

Linking Subapplications to Primary Permit

You can link existing permit subapplications to your primary permit application using the Link Permits page.
