I'll be out of town on April 22 and so had to request an absentee ballot.

Finding and downloading the application on the State of PA absentee ballot page was easy. The form itself is terribly designed. Looks like it hasn't had a makeover in 30 years. It asks for your ward and district numbers. I did a quick search online and couldn't find any tools to find my ward and district numbers.

The State of PA page had a link to local election offices phone numbers. So I called the Philly office, a human being picked up the phone and informed me that, indeed, I didn't need to fill in my ward and district, they would do that for me.
