To begin uploading a document, log in to checkwriters online or via the mobile app, navigate to My Documents, and select Upload. If you do not see the upload button, you have not been assigned any document types that allow uploads. If this is the case, reach out to your employer.

After selecting Upload, the Document Upload aside will appear.
