Hi @Jaysen! I've had a Silver membership for a few weeks and only just saw that this includes access to the TCLA Premium forum. However I can't seem to get the access link on the TCLA platform to work: how do I go about making a request?

Also I only decided yesterday morning to write up an application for a firm's 31st of January deadline (oops) and would like to cash in my application review for it, but I just saw that the deadline for those was yesterday at 5pm. Any possibility the (partial) app may still be reviewed on time if I sent it in today?

Many thanks! :D

    Will send you an invite now :)

    Yep, if you can send this in ASAP today, I'll review your application on Friday. (Normally, we can't do this, but I appreciate you weren't aware of the cut-off point.)
