3. Select which parent you would like to sign your documents, if applicable. Please note: Only the parent that you select to send the request to will be able to create an account (i.e., if you select parent 1, only the information for parent 1 may be used to create the parent account).

4. Enter your parent's email address. The parent email must be different than your email address.

5. Confirm your parent’s email address.

6. Click the Send Request button. 

Once the request has been sent, you are not able to edit your form unless you cancel the request. To cancel the request, select the Cancel Request button. You can edit your request by selecting the Edit Request button. If you cancel the request, your parent is not able to create an account or see the document to e-sign until you send the request again.

Your parent must enter their preferred email, confirm their email, choose a username, create a password and confirm their password.
