Not exactly: When filling out forms, such as job applications, "llenar" is used.

"Rellenar" is for things as in cooking. Something filled with chile is called "Chile Relleno."

A chile relleno is a chile stuffed with something else, not something stuffed with chile. - lorenzo9, Dec 31, 2009
You're absolutely correct! It's a big green chile stuffed with other stuff. Good catch! - 005faa61, Dec 31, 2009
