The below forms are required to be submitted online in myLTSA. An Enterprise account must be used for legal professionals and an Explorer account must be used for individuals. The only exception to this is for applications under section 40 where filing electronically would create an undue hardship. In those cases, the applicant must contact the Administrator to request a paper form for the application.
