URM will contact you with a reminder approximately a month before you have to recertify. You will then be required to pay an application fee again and complete a new application form.
This is due to the questions being periodically updated and so may be different from the previous year.
It is a good idea to keep a copy of your answers when you submit, to enable you to cut and paste the relevant parts from your previous submission.
Thank you to our assessor, our account manager and URM for this support. Without their advice and support, we wouldn’t have achieved this.
