Please be certain that you have read through Preparing Your Forms, and have gathered all of the necessary forms and documentation.
1. Prepare the correct number of forms, using the currently accepted forms
| Form/Documentation | # of Copies | |
|---|---|---|
| Name | Form | 1 (one) |
| Documentation (if copies are required) | 1 (one) | |
| Armory | Form with outline drawing | 1 (one) |
| Colored form | 1 (one) | |
| Documentation (if copies are required) | 1 (one) | |
The forms should say v.4 on the bottom. Earlier version numbers are no longer accepted.
Note: Submissions of armory (device/badge) require both a color version and a black-and-white line-art version. Please make sure you are sending both of these copies as part of your submission; submissions that are missing either of them will be delayed in processing.
2. Prepare your payment
Checks or money orders should be made out to SCA Inc. – East Kingdom.
- Personal checks are acceptable, you do not need a bank check or other certified check.
- You do not need to write a separate check for each item, a single check for the total amount is acceptable.
- Please put your SCA name in the memo line of the check.
- Multiple submitters in the same household can consolidate their payment and paperwork into one packet.
- If you are submitting your paperwork online and mailing only your payment, please include an additional note in the envelope with your email address, SCA name, and information as to what items this payment should be associated with. If Blue Tyger staff are unable to make the connection between your payment and your paperwork, it will at best slow down processing of your submission.
Fees
- US submissions – $9.00 (US) per item, resubmissions are free.
- Canadian submissions – $10 (CDN) per item, resubmissions are free.
Resubmissions are free if we can track down the earlier submissions, so please try to give us as much information on the prior attempt(s) as you can. Please write on the memo line of the check which SCA name it is for.
Consulting heralds are no longer permitted to accept submission forms or payment. Instead, the completed forms will be given to the submitters, who will then mail them with the appropriate payment.
3. Send the complete packet to the correct submissions address
- Please ensure that your envelope has sufficient postage.
- Please do not send as registered mail or receipt requested. This commercial mailbox is usually checked after-hours, so anything requiring interaction with postal staff is usually returned to the submitter as “undeliverable.”
- Forms may be emailed directly to blue.tyger@eastkingdom.org (for US submissions) or blue.alaunt@tirmara.eastkingdom.org (for Canadian submissions) instead of being physically mailed, but submissions will not be processed until payment is received. Payment must still be mailed to the relevant postal address below.
