Question: Can I submit secondaries w/o my primary being verified?
My AMCAS app is sitting in "Ready for Review" since 6/15. Sumitted on 6/3 and last transcript received on 6/8. I got secondary invites from a few schools this morning, can I submit them now? Or do I need to wait for my primary to be verified?

My understanding is that you can submit them now but they won't be reviewed until your primary is verified.

Yes, but as FutureDr said, your file won't be reviewed until all parts of your application have been received.

Thanks for the replies. Another question: how do I submit the photograph? Do I snail mail them with a copy of my app?

The schools' secondary application instructions will tell you. The method of submission will vary from school to school. Some accept uploads via the Internet while some require you to send it through the mail (along with other materials comprising your secondary app).
