Finish an upload after dragging files into the form

Check the selection list and submit action rather than assuming drag-and-drop sends the file.

Updated 2026-11-11

Dragging a file into Upload documents adds it to the selection when it meets the form’s requirements. It does not complete the upload by itself.

Look for the filename under Files to upload. If it does not appear, read the rejection message for format, size, empty-file, or filename-length issues. You can use Choose files as an alternative to dragging.

Review the selected company and the What is it? category, then add a note if useful. Choose Upload, or the button showing the number of selected files, and wait for the confirmed result.

Keep the page open while the transfer is processing. If some files fail, the form retains those files for another attempt and reports how many succeeded. Do not send the same whole batch again without checking that result. For a document request, use its dedicated Upload requested document action so the received file remains attached to the correct request. A generic upload alone does not prove that an outstanding request was answered.
