As an option, you can pass a request.user to form's __init__ method from
your view. Example:
class YourForm(forms.ModelForm):
def __init__(self, user, *args, **kwargs):
self.user = user
super(YourForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
# here you can modify any self.fields depends on your user
in view
def your_view(request):
form = YourForm(request.user, request.POST)
