    If I'm understanding your concern correctly, you would like your respondents to submit the form in-between forms, is that correct? Furthermore, you would like your respondents to be redirected to Form 2 after filling up and submitting form 1, then, you would like your respondents to be redirected to Form 3 after filling up and submitting Form 2.

    If that is the case, then you can use the direct link of Form 2 and set it as the "Redirect to external link" of Form 1.

    The image below shows how you can get the direct link of a form.

    Then, in Form 1, build page, copy the direct link of Form 2 to the "Redirect to external link" option of the Thank-You-Page settings.

    You should do the same to Form 2 after getting the link of Form 3.

    With the setup shown above, if you submit Form 1, instead of being redirected to the form's default Thank-you page, you will be redirected to Form 2.

    On another note, you can also have all the three steps in one form and you can divide each section using page breaks.

    I'm sorry if I forgot to mention that if you want to have the data from Form 1 to appear in Form 2, then you can pass it through the direct link of Form 2 as a parameter.

    Yes, the flow is completing form 1 will direct to form 2. 

    After completing form 2 will direct to Form 3 with some information from form 1.

     

    I will try the above parameter & update the result.
