Morphology
The meaning 'a document used to make an application' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'application' (a written request) with 'form' (a document with spaces to complete). This noun+noun composition is a straightforward, cross-linguistically common pattern and would be immediately understandable to a B1 learner who knows both constituents.
Etymology
Application form comes from putting an application, a 'formal request', on a form, a simple paper with spaces for your name and details. You fill in that paper to ask for a job, a course, or a place, so the phrase means the document you complete when you apply.
