Ta da! And there it is! For the benefit of anyone else in NC with this issue, it's been approximately 24 hours after I started the application and a link just appeared on the "My Homepage" tab which leads to a questionnaire. It's asking questions about whether I was warned verbally or in...

I can't thank you all enough for your help. I may end up with more questions, but I promise I'm not going to ask you to hold my hand through the whole process. Have a good day, everyone.
