Check Enable Application Online Payments to display the Application Portal Online Payment Options. Select the Application Fee Transaction Document and enter the Application Fee Amount. If you wish to require on-line payments before applicants can submit the application, check the box next to Force On-Line Payment Prior to Submitting New Application.
