Zachary and All, 

Thanks so much for bringing this to our attention. It unfortunately looks like there is a compatibility problem that we are trying to get to the bottom of. Here are the links again.

Hi… We were trying to do the link for the form but it kept not letting us. We discovered that the link was broken into sections, and then we figured out to highlight all of the sections, then copy it, then paste it Into the address bar oninto the address bar in safari,  and we still couldn’t get it to work; I discovered a %20 where the link broke into the second line. maybe what if you went to the form and shared the link that way?  other than this,  I’m not sure how to fix that unless you really know what you’re looking for. Just wanted to advise. I am sorry for the inconvenience but I hope it helps you. Have a good day and stay safe during the coronavirus!
