Hi,

they have realised a new version of the 47sk form, the only problem is
though, I cant edit it or do anything other than print it.  I want to be
able to edit the form online i,e put tick boxes in and fill the form in.
However its got to be the 11/05 version as dimia wont accept it.....

Anyone got a version that can be edited (i.e. type on the form) and tick
boxes all ready to go....?

if so please pm me or post I have such bad handwriting.....

Cheers

Justin

Yes, and this was the point
We've gotten so used to using computers and the tab key to fill forms in
that to have to read them and fill them in by hand is a real pain, and
as youve said about handwriting, you arent alone.

What I dont understand is why the fillable forms are only available to
migration agents.
I believe someone else on BE mentioned that if the forms could be edited
then we could change some questions however, this isnt the case.  If the
forms were fillable it means just that.  It doesnt mean you can edit any
of the questions at all.  I hardly think anyone here would actually risk
changing a question "have you ever been convicted.........." to "have
you smiled today"

In any case, to those who have pm'd me asking for fillable forms please
give me a day or 2 to make them available publicly on website.

They released it in July 2005. Is that what you mean by new? Please
don't say there's another one? :(

Hi Tiawamutu,

I wish I could so NO but unfortunately I've to say a BIGGG YES here ....
DIMIA has just released newer versions of forms. Atleast I've downloaded
the 47sk and it says last updated in nov.05 :)

i just feel more comfortable filling them in electronically, have worked
out how to take off the password, off the pdf but its the using of
adobe, i.e. to put tick boxes and text boxes applying them to the pdf
then filling ti in is the easy bit lol.

Of course (as some say) anyone can make them fillable with the pdf
writer however there are so many boxes to have to turn into text fields
it is quite time consuming.  In any case the november 2005 revision on
47sk will be ready by tuesday.

Hi everyone,

I do have Acrobat Writer but still I cant make the DIMIA forms fillable,
am I missing anything here ?

By the way, I was just wondering whats the source for downloading the
latest updated DIMIA Forms on web which are fillable. Of course, these
forms should have been uploaded somewhere on the web ... isnt it ?

To inset a text box use the free hand text tool

To move it use the text select tool

When you put your first text box in the text will be too big and the
box will have a boarder around it. To change this goto edit, properties
on the top tool bar. you can change the colour, size and boarders. You
only need to do this once it will then be applied to all other text
boxes created.

Hope this help see pic below

Just a small tip here.I am not sure that DIMIA would accept forms filled
in by this method (they seem rather rigid over their processes) but for
other forms - such as my university application - I have them in filled
in on screen using the following method:

Click on the text select tool in Adobe Acrobat
Highlight all the text on the form
Press "control" and  "c" together
Open a Word document
Press "control" and "v" together

This will paste all the text into Word. You may need to tidy up the form
so it looks the same as the adobe version, but it means you can fill it
in onscreen which is a lot neater(yup my handwriting looks like
something has crawled dying across the page too) and you also have a
form you can email, although as Word is editable by others you need to
send a hard copy by post too.

I use this method as I am too tight to pay for Adobe Writer!
