Question regarding sending LOR via Interfolio

Quick question. Alright, this coming cycle I'm wanting to use this service to send letters to TMDSAS. The TMDSAS requires a special form with the letter, so I know I can have a letter writer send a letter with the TMDSAS together and be on file in interfolio, but is there a possibility to send the letter from Interfolio to some schools excluding the TMDSAS form accompanied with it so I can send some letters to individual schools that are not in Texas. I'm asking this because the TMDSAS evaluation form and letter will be ONE file, and I'll need to just exclude the TMDSAS form for some schools outside of Texas if I decide to send elsewhere?
Not sure how this works.

I just made two files for each of my letters. One had the Texas evaluation with the letter and the other not. You just have to be careful to send the right one. Maybe someone else knows a better way but thats how I did it.

Oh so you can send the TMDSAS form with the letter but choose to have one file with both and one file with only the letter?
thanks

I had my letter writers send essentially the same letter twice. One with the TMDSAS form and one without. The key is just to create two files on interfolio with distinct letter ID #s.

oh shoot i did not know about this- how is the TMDSAS different from regular letter of recs?

I think the easiest way to do this is to have 2 requests. Title of request 1 can be the LOR, and title of request 2 can be TMDSAS eval form. This way, when you send TMDSAS, you send requests 1 and 2; when you send AMCAS, you just send the first file.

This can work as well. But idk I don't wanna take the chance of sending them separately when I can just make the letter writer send one with form and one by itself, so when i forward to tmdsas they get both the form and letter, plus im sure it will cost less as well

if using aacomas, do we send the lor's to individual schools, because I looked at the website and i didn't see a evaluator form or if i have to send letters to aacomas directly and they send it too schools like amcas?

lol just wish all schools used the same system
