When check box is selected, need text to be written on bookmark

Another way is to use the following macro to write your values to the bookmarks
You can then call it from your form e.g.

Code:

FillBM "bmDate", txtDate.Value
FillBM "bmName", txtName.Value

This ensures that the text is written IN the bookmark rather than AT it, thus enabling the values to be recalled to the userform should you wish to recall the userform to edit the document.
For optional insertions

Code:

If chckIEP.Value = True Then
    FillBM "bmIEP", "Request IEP"
Else
    FillBM "bmIEP", ""
End If

Code:

Public Sub FillBM(strbmName As String, strValue As String)

Dim orng As Range
    With ActiveDocument
        On Error GoTo lbl_Exit
        Set orng = .Bookmarks(strbmName).Range
        orng.Text = strValue
        orng.Bookmarks.Add strbmName
    End With
lbl_Exit:
    Set orng = Nothing
    Exit Sub
End Sub
