Using the Application Form

Using the application form requires the Adobe Acrobat Reader® (5 or higher). If you don't have a copy of Acrobat Reader®, go to Adobe's web site and download the latest version.
It's free!

When you click on the link to the application form it will open in your browser. You can then click on save icon (looks like a diskette) on the Acrobat Reader® toolbar to save the application form on your computer. You may then open the form, fill it out using your computer, and then print the completed form.

Completing the Application Form on your Computer

To fill out the form, place the curser in the area that you want to type in and click. You can use the tab key to move between fill areas or simply use your curser and click in the desired area. Check boxes are activated by a click of the mouse. You can also uncheck the boxes by another click of the mouse

You also have the option of using your word processing program to save the text that goes into the form fields and then cut and paste from the word processing program to the Adobe PDF file.

IMPORTANT NOTE: You will NOT be able to save the information that you enter into the form with the free Reader. You are only able to save the form. Once the form is filled out, print several copies or duplicate a copy for your records prior to sending the signed original and copies to the KAC.

Once you close the form, ALL typed data will disappear.

When you are ready to print, be sure to use the print icon located on the same line/bar as the other ADOBE icons, and NOT the print icon on your browser's task bar.
