There is a separate slot for each 5257 when you upload documents.

Stack each applicant's documentation starting with the main applicant on top, use the 5257 as cover for each stack.

If you are applying together, then the same, if not accordingly.

Thanks Jalex.
I have one more questions.

How can i place barcode page in top of application, because in intruction they mentioned "not to take print while applying online, instead validate,save and upload".
