If you don't have all the required information ready for your application, it's important to act promptly. The council will provide reasons for invalidating your application and inform you of the necessary information needed. If you don't submit the requested information to the required standard within 28 days, your application will be treated as 'Withdrawn', and you could incur an administrative charge.
