I would definitely fill it out on the computer, print it out and then sign it. Sometimes you will not be able to enter things like "PRESENT" in the date field so for those I left them blank when I filled it out on the computer and then wrote that in with a pen.

If it is fillable forms, use computer. Else use Black ink and Capital letters.

There is a Punjabi joke - A punjabi's wife was admitted in a hospital in Punjab. While filling an application, it said "Fill in Capital". Then he went to Delhi (Capital of India) and compaleted the form and came back :star::star::star: No offense, just a joke !
