Getting rental application document together

I am getting ready to create a rental application document and would like to know if there are any standard forms available or any that you guys can share?

Anything that I should definitely include and anything that I should avoid ( I know there are some things we aren't allowed to ask about)?

This will be our first rental property and I basically already have someone ready to rent, but want to make sure we do it by the books. It is a woman, her man and their baby. I know to get a copy of both of their IDs, any other documentation I should also get from them?

I'm so nervous, but glad we've finally taken the step, the house should close within the month.

Hello. I'm sure it scares off some people. I can tell you this: I may not get as many applications as many others do, but the ones I do get are high quality. Rarely do I have to turn people down when they apply. Works great for weeding out people.
