Thank you in advance for any help.

Is there a way for new applicants to my group to provide some information about themselves upon applying?

For example, my group is all veterinary licensed and we require license details to join the group.
As it stands - potential members apply and then I have to email them requesting these details. I lose a bunch of applicants - as they simply don't respond.
I'd like to be able to have them submit these details upon applying - as they are obviously engaged at that point.

Any insight, tips etc. is appreciated..

Jean,
I don?t know if this could be applicable for your group:

I also own a group dealing with veterinary issues. Since I do not want to have food sellers or alternative practioneers in our group (and also because sometimes help must be organised nearby a person?s place of residence), I request personal data before subscribing. I send out a pending subscription notice via member notice containing a questionnaire. Instead of having the questionnaire returned to the owner-address, I request to have it sent back to me personally. For this purpose I link up my mail-address under the questionnaire. In this manner personal data do not run over the group.io server and only me as owner or - in case of my absence - a co-owner receives these data. In compliance with GDPR I add a short commentary to this effect.

So far the pending subscription notice containing the questionnaire was always sent out instantly after application and was returned correctly.? This is
a practice I have been excercising in my yahoo group for 12 years. Applicants who dont want to provide their personal data just dont reply. These cases are quite rare though.
