to submit for

[Sepmre]

Hi,

I would like to know what does the underlined phrase means? I'm in trouble with " submit for".

One additional note regarding the construction schedule: Often, the contractor will have submitted for construction permits once his
contract is signed.

Thanks

Does "applied for" make more sense to you?

 

[Sepmre]

Not really, I don't have any idea what does it mean either.

 

[SoothingDave]

Do you know what a construction permit is? How would you obtain one?

 

[Sepmre]

Yes, I know. Yes you have to apply for it. Am I right? what a stupid question...

Who are you calling stupid?

My question on what does mean " apply for". I've call it a stupid question.

Thank you so much SoothingDave.
