1. There is no form to request a continuance. You have to file a motion with the court using the Family Law motion forms set. However you are not describing a situation in which a motion for continuance would be granted. The validity of a proof of service of the petition and summons is only relevant in a default situation. If the respondent has appeared in the case by filing a response without disputing service of process, the validity of service is irrelevant.
