Should the undertaking form be sent as an attachment to the e-mail along with the entry, or should it be submitted in hard copy to UP Tomo-Kai prior to the entry submission online?
Hi PJ! Sorry for the delayed response. Sending a hard copy is ok but it’s more feasible to just email a soft copy– just make sure your signature is included. You can scan it or take a photo of it :)
