Once you access Apple financial Services, follow these steps:

2. After the e-mail address provided is verified a response will be sent “account set up”
3. Log in using your new account information and start the online application
4. At the end of the process, requests will appear for the uploading of tax information, i.e. T4’s, current year’s pay statements, etc.
5. Once the information is uploaded the payment section will appear. Please note that Akiva pays the fee. You do not have to fill out this part.
