Correcting mistakes

If made a mistake, cross out (X) the erroneous circle(s), shade the correct circle(s) and put an X on the square box at the end of the row where the correction was done.

If all entries in a row are correct, do not put any mark on the square box.

Keep the form number clean

The bottom right corner must be kept clean and unmarked (ie. no lines or characters overwriting the number). The number is by Teleform (the form scanning tool) to identify the form and if it is unreadable, the form will not import right.
