When to Attach Subsequent Applications to a Standard FR or TP
General
Most applications received by the Keeper are single, stand-alone applications that can be completed without the need to process another application at the same time. However, if a subsequent application (for example, a DW application to register a discharge of a standard security) is received by RoS before the initial application is processed and completed, it is often appropriate to process the two applications together. This will result in the Land Register reflecting the most up-to-date version position for the title sheet, and may also make the registration process more efficient for RoS. Occasionally though, even if a subsequent application is received before the initial application is completed, the complexity of the subsequent application(s) means it will be best to complete the initial application as a stand-alone application with the subsequent application(s) being completed at a later date.

Guidance
If a subsequent application exists that should be attached to the initial application, request it from centralised support, attach the application and proceed with the registration process. |
Guidance
If a subsequent application exists that should not be attached to the initial application, it should not be requested from centralised support. Proceed with registration of the initial application. |
Guidance
If a subsequent application exists that requires further consideration, request it from centralised support and refer to a referral officer to consider whether it is appropriate to attach it. |
