How do I update my ERB information?

I am a Army Reserve Solder and on my ERB, I have a lot of missing information. I talked to my S1 about getting it updated but the only thing he said was that I needed to submit to him an ERB with the missing information and he would then submit it to get it IPERM. I have been looking everywhere for a blank ERB form but it does not seem one exist. Is there a fillable ERB form out there that I can fill out or do I just hand write the missing information on the existing ERB form and turn that in to my S1. Thank you all for your help in advance.

My way was to take an ERB with all the needed corrections and proof of completions to the S1 rep I trusted most. Below are blogs I wrote about important updates to the ERB and how to use it for professional development respectively:

I can't say for an ERB, but when I update the ORB, I circle the mistake/omission, and submit the order or document that corrects it, the S1 shop sends it up to be corrected...only send copies not originals,.

For the Reserve, you use an ARB generated in RCMS instead of an ERB. The link to view/validate your ARB is https://selfservice.rcms.usar.army.mil/SelfService/Home/CareerCenter/Home.aspx. You'll have to CAC into the site to access youir record. There is no fillible version of the ARB, so you'll need to hand write your changes. The S-1 will update the system with what's in your iPERMS, and those changes will be immediately reflected on your ARB.

You already know about the ARB from other posts. Once you review that document you have two options. If your S1 has access, it can be done there, but more commonly you will have to set up an appointment with your local RPAC to have them enter the changes. You will need to provide all supporting documentation and about 2-3 hours o your time depending on the amount of stuff you need to add
