Fill in the blanks portions are so limited, it makes it almost impossible to use.
Sorry to hear that David. Your order and payment has been canceled. We do hope that you find something more suitable to your needs elsewhere.

Form needs to be gender neutral. Also, while the format prompts for the correct information to be included, more of the form needs to be open for editing and to eliminate unnecessary spacing.
Karen, thank you for your helpful feedback. We appreciate you pointing this out and are reviewing the form to make the language gender neutral, improve editability, and reduce unnecessary spacing so it is easier to complete.
