Regular Forms that are on the National Forms Website Most of the information that follows is also on the National Forms Website. Some additional information has been added to help member navigate the National Forms Website. Coast Guard Auxiliary's National Forms Site contains the most recently released versions of Auxiliary forms. Many of the forms provide fill-in capability, and some include new printing and numeric totaling features. A left click on the light blue form title will open the form in a new window to fill out and print. If you right click on light blue form title and choose "Save Target As" on the menu that come up, you can save the form to your computer to use as often as you want. It should be noted that form are changed often and by saving it to you computer you could run into a situation were you are using a from with an outdated revision number. It would be better to open the form by a left click then save it to your Favorites so that you have a link to the form. Links to: Coast Guard Auxiliary's National Forms Site Regular Forms Page
EMAIL FORMS Are approved for use in Division 2. SO/IS Division 2 has approved use of these by flotilla's in Division 2. You can send them directly to SO/IS but you also need to send a copy to FSO/IS Judy Davidson. Please read direction below before filling out one of these forms. They will tell you how to add more than one email address to the form. These forms are identical in content to normal forms, with the exception that they allow on-line submission to whomever you like. The software requirements for these forms to work properly are Acrobat Reader 5 and above. Your browser must support Reader opening as a helper application while on-line; National has stated that they cannot test with every browser currently in the field. Adobe is aware of an incompatibility with Netscape Navigator 6 which does not allow the forms submission feature to work, so NN6 cannot be used at present. MSIE does not appear to have any problem with the current version. In order to use these forms, you must *left* click on the form number (do NOT *right* click as you normally do to download a form!) and be patient, as the form itself must be copied into the browser and the Reader has to start. You may experience a white screen for a period of time- that's normal. When you have finished filling out the form, you can print a copy of the completed form by using the printer icon in the Reader window or the print button at the bottom of the form. Once you click on the "Submit" button, the data will be sent to the address you've specified and an acknowledgement screen will appear confirming what was sent. NOTE: If nothing happens when you click "SUBMIT" see the FAQ page on the national website. You may send multiple addressees your reports; simply add a comma (,) between addresses. For example, to send to aux1@cgaux.org and coasty@isp.com, enter "aux1@cgaux.org, coasty@isp.com" (without the quotation marks). You need a space between the comma and the next email address for it to work. Flotilla members can email the FSO/CS for help with this. He has a suggestion on how you can set this all up in Note Pad to make it easier to add the email addresses. If you choose to send a copy to yourself and add your email address to send to and have a Spam filter running or have AOL as your service provider you will not get a copy. The best thing to do is print a copy before sending so that you know you have a copy. If you have difficulties, please report them using the Request for Technical Assistance form on the national website. Links to: Request for Technical Assistance Do not try to download these forms and submit them from your computer. For these forms to work you have to do them online.
It should be noted that member can also get printed copies of all Auxiliary forms by requesting them from FSO/MA Louis N. Lemieux Most Auxiliary brochures and Manuals are posted on the Chief Director's website. If you cannot find a manual on the website referenced above, you may try contacting the specific Department responsible for the subject area covered by the particular manual(s) in which you are interested. You can find the Auxiliary Manual at this link Auxiliary Manuals Online. District 1 NR Forms & Publications Site has Auxiliary forms available that are intended for use within District 1NR only. You can find Annual Currency Maintenance Form, District 1NR Materials Catalog, and the latest copy of the Nor'easter in color. A Flow Chart for Auxiliary Forms can also be found here. |
