Electronic Images (PDF Image Versions)PDF Image Icon

These forms are being made available as Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF) files so that they can be printed and then used in the same manner as any traditional paper form. They can be viewed and printed with Adobe Acrobat software, including the free Acrobat Reader. This software is available for use with several different computer operating systems, including Windows 3.1, 95, 98, and NT, OS/2, Macintosh, and several Unix versions.

Screen Fillable Forms (PDF Fillable Versions)PDF Fillable Icon

We are also making some of our forms available as screen-fillable Adobe Acrobat PDF Forms. These are similar to the PDF form images described above, except that they may be completed on the screen before being printed. In order to complete these forms on the screen, you must have Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Acrobat Reader version 5.0 or above.

If you have the Acrobat software configured as a web browser plug-in application you can fill-out and print the form within your web browser. If you are using the free Acrobat Reader software, however, you cannot save the form with the fill-in data for use at a later time. You will need to use the purchased version of Adobe Acrobat in order to do this. The free reader software will, however, allow you to save the blank form itself for use at a later time if you are using the filler software as a web browser plug-in application.
