How do I set up a renewal feature for a Connect form?

Go to Form Settings > Renewals tab and enable renewals.

Select one of two methods:

Manual date — all submissions renew on the same fixed calendar date each year (e.g., January 1).
Day count — each submission renews a set number of days after its previous approval (e.g., 365 days).

Each renewal notification email includes a direct link to the renewal form, pre-filled with data from the previous submission.

The tracking number's "YY" portion auto-updates to the current year on renewal.
Date fields on renewal forms pre-populate from the previous submission — this cannot be prevented.
Cancel renewal stops an applicant from submitting a renewal for a specific submission (this can be reopened later).
The "Reset renewal dates" button resets dates on submissions that have never been renewed — it is intermittently broken as of March 2026 [Bug].
You can manually trigger a renewal notification by clicking "Send Notification" on a specific submission.
