ACCEPTED ANSWER

Score 54


I decided to turn to existing forms rather than just reaching into the air for an obscure term. Here's the USCIS I-129F form, which is a government form that might be prepared by someone other than the petitioner. They call this person the preparer.




ANSWER 2

Score 28


Submitter, because they just submitted the form?

-- to present (something) (optionally for a approval / review)

For example, I submit an edit here, I am the submitter.

User is another option.




ANSWER 3

Score 17


How about

Responder

re•spond•er (rɪˈspɒn dər)

n. 1. a person or thing that responds.




ANSWER 4

Score 4
