ORDER. The self-represented plaintiff has filed a #12 Consent to Electronic Notice and a #13 Motion by Self-Represented Litigant to Participate in Electronic Filing. Although plaintiff has largely completed each of these forms, he has failed to provide an email address in either form. See Doc. #12 at 1; Doc. #13 at 1. In order to receive electronic notice and to participate in electronic filing, plaintiff must provide the Court with a valid email address. Accordingly, on or before October 23, 2020, plaintiff shall re-file both the Consent to Electronic Notice form and the Motion to Participate in Electronic Filing form, including in each a valid email address.

ORDER. Plaintiff has filed two motions (using different forms) seeking to proceed without the payment of fees and costs, each of which includes a sworn statement as to plaintiff's current financial circumstances. See Doc. #2 , Doc. #11 . In each of those motions, plaintiff has sworn that he has no income and no assets. See generally id. At this stage, such allegations are sufficient to establish that plaintiff is unable to pay the ordinary filing fees required by the Court. See 28 U.S.C. 1915(a)(1). Accordingly, plaintiff's Motions for Leave to Proceed in forma pauperis (Doc. #2 , Doc. #11 ) are GRANTED. The Court also reminds plaintiff that pursuant to the Court's September 24, 2020, Order, he is to file a copy of the Appeals Council decision on or before October 16, 2020. See Doc. #8. It is so ordered. Signed by Judge Sarah A. L. Merriam on 10/6/2020. (Katz, S.)
