Forms

Many queries come in about forms so ask yourself the following questions:

  1. Have you filled in the correct form and supplied the required number of forms?
  2. Have they been signed by the required people?
  3. Have you put in the right number of SAEs
  4. Have you put the correct postage on? Remember that with several forms in an envelope the postage is higher.
  5. Are you sending it off in time, allowing it to get to all of the people in time for you to receive your confirmation?
