the portal didn&#8217;t save the info, since when i go back to check, tthe info wasnt there&#8230; i did press the &#8220;Submit&#8221; button as instructed&#8230; and then pressed the &#8220;Save or Cancel&#8221; buttn (wtf? am i saving or canceling?), at which the form closed and brought me cack to the parent page&#8230; where I noticed that nothing was saved.<br>however, it was my fault for not noticing thaat when I i pressed &#8220;Submit&#8221;, there was an error up page due to my entering &#8220;Canada Life Health &amp; Vision&#8221; (they just wanted &#8220;Canada Life&#8221;&#8230;..<br>NOTE: since this error is up page, and there was no other notice about an error when i pressed &#8216;Submit&#8221; and then &#8220;Save &amp; close?&#8221;, i did nt see this.  so the info i spent 10 minutes entering (mostly trying to find the info&#8230;) was simply tossed away.  as a minimum it should somehow either show my the error\/missing info, or tell me as i saved there was an error, or as i tabbed out of the &#8220;Insurance&#8221; field tell me then.  not just throw the info away.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter
