  3. Date stamp all application forms upon receipt and any accompanying correspondence, which you should fasten securely to the form.

  4. Check that the form is properly completed. If the form is incomplete, telephone or write to the trader requesting the additional information. You should mark and initial any amendments to the form in red ink.
