Having Trouble Opening These Forms?: If you click on one of these links and get a message that starts with "Please wait...", then your web browser is probably using a built-in PDF viewer, rather than using Acrobat Reader. In that case, upgrading to the latest version of Acrobat Reader will not fix the problem. Instead, do this:

  1. Right-click on the link and select "Save link as..." to download the form to your local drive.
  2. Use Acrobat Reader to open the downloaded file from your local drive.
