    Hi Dannyw,

    As you have shared, that the form has been filled and signed. Once the form is signed then you can not make further changes to it.

    You need to fill the source document again and send to the receiver.

    For detailed description and workaround you may see- In Reader, how do I edit text after I have signed the document? (Edit PDF Acrobat Reader)

    and How do I edit a signed PDF document (Edit PDF)

    Hope this would help.

    Regards,

    Akanchha
