IMPORTANT NOTE: The user account is created when page one is submitted, therefore any "required" profile fields must be included on page one. Profile fields added to additional pages is for convenience purposes only and the user is technically not required or forced to complete any fields that have been added to additional pages, regardless if they are marked as required or mandatory fields.
Having a lengthy registration or sign-up process typically isn't a good practice, if possible it's best to try and keep the registration as brief as possible and on one single page and let the user complete their profile at their own leisure after signing up.
