Doing Natl Tour Permit Online

Both national and local tour permits can be done online now at MyScouting. I'm working through the process for the first time with a national tour permit and either I'm doing something wrong or the system isn't quite ready.

First off, when you log into MyScouting there is no place to get to the online Tour Permits. You first need to change your profile to enable the link to Permits.

1. Go to http://scouting.org
2. Click the MyScouting link at the top and enter your account info.
3. Click MY PROFILE
4. Click MODIFY PROFILE
5. Check the TOUR PERMITS chekbox
6. Click SUBMIT button at the bottom
7. Now TOUR PERMITS appears in the list of features.

Once you have that done (whew) you can start making tour permits. You need to enter vehicle information, leader info and training, and then info about the trip with itinerary, training, and policies.

For some reason, when I submit a permit I continue to receive a pop-up warning that the itinerary info is not complete. We'll see if it gets accepted or not.
