Ilm having the damndest time...

I'm trying to fill out a form for a duplicate social security card! now, i already have adobe 8 installed. it's an interactive form and i have followed all the directions, but for the life of me, i cannot even get one letter typed into the form! someone please help me! this is so frustrating! juliek

 hi Computer Tutor, Nice to meet you and thank you for your help! i had read all that you had in your post, but i didn't take that to mean it could not be filled out on the computer because there is another place where the directions are there for using a typewriter for a tool. i knew i would have to print it after i filled it out , but it just doesn't make sense to me that it cannot be filled out online. i guess i'm just thick like my mother used to tell me! well, thanks so much for your help...juliek

Hi Juliek -

I think you are trying to fill out a form online that is not designed to be completed online. You need to print the form and complete it by hand, sign it, and bring it to your local Social Security Office. If this is Form SS-5FS, you won't be able to fill it out online. Please note these instructions, copied from that form:

"Complete and sign the application using BLUE or BLACK INK. Do not use pencil or other
colors of ink. Please write legibly."

and

"HOW TO SUBMIT THIS APPLICATION
In most cases, you can mail or take this application with your evidence documents to any U.S. Social
Security office, U.S. Embassy or consulate or VARO. If you are a military dependent or a U.S. citizen
working on a U.S. military post, you may also go to the Post Adjutant or Personnel Office. If you do not
want to mail your original documents, take them with this application to one of the offices listed above.
The people there will copy your documents and mail them to the Social Security Administration along
with this form."

Hope this helps.
