Apparently no blind person tested this form. How surprising.

Well, it turns out I didn't actually have to fill it out either. But I'm glad I did.... At least we know it's doable.
. One of the suggestions I made is to clarify which of the choices are absolutely necessary in completing the signature process, and which are optional. And also that when a prompt says "sign in" and "edit", what you type in actually is what it should be, where it should be..  Anyway, I'm set until 2024, and when Tiffany said she hoped this would all be worked out by then, I said I KNEW  it would be!!!

Since I don't need to actually fill out this form I didn't make it to the signature piece. That sounds so frustrating!

I was able to fill out the online form with no trouble, until I got to the signature. This part was extremely confusing and frustrating, at least for me
Each time I signed , when the signature didn't go through, I would get sent back to the beginning of the document.   In my opinion, there are too many ambiguous , and perhaps unnecessary steps with the signature process.
I spoke with Tiffany about this. Actually had to call her twice, but the second time I had her actually listen to what I was getting back, and at the very least I think she acknowledged  that things can present quite differently when you're relying on the info from your screen reader.

Gonna go have some dark, dark chocolate now!

Fillable PDF didn't show as fillable for me? Did anyone else have that problem?
Online version looked good to me though.
