Is "kindly" an outdated word?

I would like to make a polite request to another person, as in "please kindly fill out the form and return it to us". I was wondering if the word "kindly" is used when making polite requests in a business context? I see it used frequently by British people (maybe I'm wrong) but I was wondering if it this word also sounds natural in US/Canada?
