Create your free account

It takes about a minute. There is nothing to buy, and you choose whether alerts reach you by email, by text, or not at all.

Create your free eHelpLab account

Keep track of everything you've applied for, in a verified account only you can reach.

This is how you sign in, and where your alerts go if you choose email.

Only needed if you want text updates. You can use your account, and get every alert by email, without it.

How would you like to hear from us?

All of these are optional and every one starts off. Pick any combination, and change it whenever you like from your notification settings.

Email
Text message

Email and text are separate choices, and so are account and marketing messages within each. Turning one off never affects the others, and you can leave all four unchecked and still use your account. Text alerts begin once there is a mobile number on your account — you can add one later from your settings.

What you get

  • Every application in one list, with a running count of how long each has waited
  • Confirmation numbers, fees, and documents stored with the application
  • A flag when one goes quiet past the follow-up window for its category
  • The follow-up message written for you, with your dates already filled in
  • Email import — forward a confirmation and it's tracked
  • Alerts by email, by text, or neither — all four opt-ins start off
  • CSV export of everything, any time

What happens next

Right after you sign up

We email you a link to confirm your address. If you also gave us a mobile number, we text you a one-time code to confirm that too. What you've applied for is personal, so we verify a channel before sending anything to it — and that code is the only message we send before you turn on updates.

Once you add your first application

It starts counting immediately against the follow-up window for its category. Add the applications you already submitted — type them in, or forward us the confirmation emails and we'll pull the details out of them.

Once a channel is confirmed

If you checked Account Notifications for email, we start emailing you when it's time to check in on something. If you checked it for text, you get a text instead — or both, if you picked both. If you checked neither, we don't send alerts at all; the account works either way.

Whenever you want to stop

Reply STOP to any text and it ends there. Every email has an unsubscribe link. You can also change any of it from your notification settings, or email us and we'll do it for you. Stopping alerts never affects any application you've submitted.

Not ready to sign up?

You don't need an account to ask us a question. The contact form collects no phone number and never adds you to a messaging list. The FAQ covers most questions.

Still deciding?

The features page goes through everything the account does. The guides explain where our follow-up windows come from, and they're worth reading whether or not you sign up.
