You indicate you currently have "a [1?] static IP address"
from your ISP, but the End User Template requires that you
show how you have utilised multiple IP addresses from your
current ISP in order to justify receiving a block from ARIN:
quote
1. List the ISP(s) providing your organization's connectivity
to the Internet.
2. List all IP addresses previously assigned to your organization.
Include IP addresses directly assigned from an Internet Registry
as well as IP addresses assigned to you from an ISP. Confirm that
all IP addresses are registered via WHOIS or RWhois to the
organization listed in the ORGANIZATION SECTION (lines 8 through
10).
3. Provide information detailing how your existing IP addresses have
been utilized. Use the following format:
-----------------------------------------------------------
Existing Addresses Subnet Mask Hosts Description

xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 255.255.255.224 8 Network

And, from the ARIN Number Resource Policy Manual (NRPM):
quote
4.3.2. Minimum assignment
4.3.2.1 Single Connection
The minimum block of IP address space assigned by ARIN to
end-users is a /20. If assignments smaller than /20 are
needed, end-users should contact their upstream provider.

I'm not sure what size block is represented by "/20" but it
seems clear to me that only organizations which have been
utilizing a substantial block from an ISP for over a year
should attempt to obtain a block of IP addresses directly
from ARIN, and such an attempt must be justified with
documentation of how a similar block was utilised in the past.
You are also asked, in the HOSTS subsection to predict your
utilisation within the year to come, which is something you
could only do based on figures derived from at least a year's
worth of statistics with your current ISP block of addresses:
quote
4. Initial Host Count:
5. Host Count Within One Year:
6. ** Explain how the requested addresses will be utilized both
** initially and within one year, using the format below.
** ----------------------------------------------------------
** Hosts Hosts
** Subnet# Subnet Mask Now 1yr Description

** 1.0 255.255.255.224 8 16 Network

So it seems clear to me that the normal path of expansion
into the utilization of increased numbers of IP addresses
is typically done, first, through an ISP, and only after
such use is consistent and justified would you approach
ARIN as a direct provider of a block of IP addresses.

"i know of the template on arin and directions hwo to fill them out.
but i need a template prefilled out so it iwlll reject for an end user
(i fill in the contact , poc, info) currently i just have one ip from
ISP.
I can use the requested ip addresses from arin for our work stations.
i have 512 work stations currently. right now they are all connected
to a router and the router gives then a 192 ip address."
Once again, if you currently use a single IP address from your ISP,
you are not in a position to satisfy the requirements for requesting
a minimimum sized block of actual IP addresses from ARIN.
The IP addresses parcelled out by your router are not actual IP
addresses, and are not regulated either by your ISP or by ARIN.
These are internal IP addresses for your LAN (Local Area Network),
and have nothing to do with the IP addresses assigned by your ISP
or ARIN, which are on the WAN (Wide Area Network), or internet.
If you need a larger number of LAN IP addresses to use with your
512 workstations - say you want them all to have unique internal
IP addresses - a router is capable of providing DHCP services and
assigning up to 255 addresses. If you want more than that, you
would need to obtain another WAN IP address from your ISP and
use a second router to provide another 255 addresses to the
additional PCs.
Understand that, with each of the actual IP addresses assigned
by your ISP, you can configure a router to provide addresses
to 255 unique machines. Even if the two routers assign the
same internal addresses in a range from 192.168.123.001-255,
so that two of the workstations will have the same internal
address, say 192.168.123.151, they will be assigned from a
different router with a different external (actual) IP address,
so they will still be uniquely connected (you can assign them
a unique domain name in the DHCP section of the router
configuration page in your browser (usually at the address of
192.168.123.254).
If you seriously want all the machines to have independent WAN
IP addresses (not the 192.xxx.xxx.xxx kind) then you need to
negotiate with your ISP to provide a block of -actual- IP
addresses. This would be considerably more expensive than
using a router to accomplish unique connections, and this is a
necessary step before ARIN would ever consider your request for
a block of actual IP addresses, as indicated by the policies I
cited previously.

You said:
"No, I run servers as well and my users are also requesting their
own ip address. My ISP wont give me any more then two."
What kind of provider is that for a business to use? Time to
change ISPs, I'd say.
---
You said:
"I look in the database at arin to see who has their own block
of ips. there are organzations that have 2 dozen ip addresses
that are exteremly small companies."
Just because organizations are listed in the Arin Whois database
doesn't mean that they received their block of IP addresses from
Arin. The Whois database will list all valid IP addresses, no
matter who the provider/registrar of the IP address is.
---
In summary:
"The minimum block of IP address space assigned by ARIN to
end-users is a /20. If assignments smaller than /20 are
needed, end-users should contact their upstream provider."

"a /20...is 16*256*256*256 (-2) = 268,435,454 IP addresses"
Thanks to crythias-ga.
"If you upgrade to a business account or to a faster connection,
most ISPs will offer you more static IPs."
Thanks to david0mp-ga.
As I'm unable to negotiate with an ISP on your behalf, that's
as much as I can offer you in terms of what you've requested.
