Make Claims on the CIL Online Portal

Once you've enrolled in the CIL, you have a profile on the CIL online portal. This is where you can track your progress and make claims for the requirements you have completed.

You are responsible to make claims for components of the CIL that you have completed. We will not know that you have completed a requirement unless you make a claim.

Make your Orientation claim first, because you are unable to submit any other claims until you have submitted and had your Orientation claim approved.

Once you make a claim, the CIL office will review and either approve it, ask for more information, or deny it. Please review the online portal claim instructions to ensure your claims are submitted correctly.


Important dates and deadlines
