Upgrade to Version 2.2

Accessible FormNet ^TM is an enhanced 32-bit version of the FormNet Surfer, which has been offered on the GSA Forms website for several years. It is compatible with the Surfer forms which have been downloaded, filled and saved in the past, and meets the standards for Section 508 accessibility. It is a licensed product of Intercon Associates, and all users must register so that we at GSA can track the number and location of licenses in use.

Accessible FormNet ^TM consists of two filler options. When users click on a form to open it, it will open in FormNet Visual Fill ^TM , the enhanced version of the FormNet Surfer software.

However, when the software detects that a visually impaired employee is using a screen reader, it will automatically open the form in FormNet Verbal Fill ^TM , and will present the form in a plain text question-and-answer format. Example: "Enter your last name…Enter your First Name…etc." Field-by-field instructions are provided, and instructions which often appear on the back of the form can be heard by requesting extra help for each field.

The software can be installed on your PC using the link above.

Privacy Information

We ask that users register for a software license so that we can track the number and locations of licenses in use. This information will not be shared or used for other purposes.

Accessible forms are being added to the website as they are updated. Should you need to use a particular GSA, Standard or Optional Form which has not yet been made available in Accessible FormNet^TM format, please contact Jan Wendler at Email: jan.wendler@gsa.gov
