RED X Error on ATF eForm 1 after Uploading ATF 5320.23 and Passport Photo

RED X Error on ATF eForm 1 after Uploading ATF 5320.23 and Passport Photo

When you are using the ATF eForm's website to apply for a tax stamp, you will need to upload your digital passport style photo and if you are applying with a gun trust or other legal entity, you will also need to upload your ATF 5320.23 to your eForm 1 application.  But the red x next to the Form 5320.23 (if applicable) and Photo is not an error.  When you upload your ATF 5320.23 (if applicable) and your passport photo, the red x will be an update button (shown below).  As you move through your multiple columns and enter in your zip code.  The table will reload your city and state based on your zip code and change the update button to the red x.  But the red x simply indicates that the documents were uploaded to your form.
