submitted
Describes the state of something (e.g., a document, application, or lawsuit) that has been officially handed in or presented to the responsible office or person.
Alle für den Wettbewerb eingereichten Vorschläge werden von einer Fachjury bewertet.
All proposals submitted for the competition will be evaluated by a panel of experts.
'Eingereicht' is the past participle of the separable verb 'einreichen' (to submit). It is often used like an adjective before a noun to describe its state.
Der eingereichte Antrag wird nun geprüft.
The submitted application is now being reviewed.
You can use 'eingereicht' (submitted) in two ways: as an adjective before a noun or as part of the predicate in a passive sentence. Both forms describe that the process of submitting has been completed.
Die eingereichten Unterlagen waren unvollständig.
The submitted documents were incomplete.
This word is almost always used in a formal or official context. Typically, applications, documents, a job application, a complaint, a resignation, or a doctoral dissertation are 'eingereicht' (submitted).
Die eingereichte Kündigung ist ab dem nächsten Monat wirksam.
The submitted resignation is effective starting next month.
present / available
Both words can describe the same application. Here, „vorliegend“ emphasizes that it is currently present and being processed, while „eingereicht“ emphasizes that it was officially submitted to the responsible office. The choice therefore depends on whether the focus is on current availability or on the previous act of submission.
Die Behörde bestätigt den gestern eingereichten Antrag.
The authority confirms the application submitted yesterday.
Die Behörde entscheidet auf Grundlage des vorliegenden Antrags.
The authority will make its decision on the basis of the application currently before it.
