RE: How to get multi form initial data?

You are using a dictionary as your form_class.  It should only be one form, as far as I know.  I am quite interested to learn how you got the form working by specifying a dictionary.

 

Please review documentation:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/topics/class-based-views/generic-editing/

 

And for Classy Class-Based Views:
