DA Form 31, Request and Authority for Leave (governed by Army Regulation 600-8-10, Leaves and Passes), is the official U.S. Army form used by Soldiers to request and document Ordinary Leave, Emergency Leave, Convalescent Leave, Parental/Caregiver Leave, Permissive TDY (PTDY), and Transition/Terminal Leave when IPPS-A is offline, for inter-service/PCS packets, or when a paper leave control record is required.

Need to open and fill out DA Form 31 on a Mac, Chromebook, personal Windows PC, or smartphone without getting the dreaded Adobe XFA "Please wait..." error? While routine Army leave requests run through IPPS-A (Integrated Personnel and Pay System – Army), Soldiers, S-1 orderly rooms, ROTC/OCS detachments, PCS clearing stations, and Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) audits still rely on DA Form 31 for manual leave control numbers, emergency Red Cross leave, transition/terminal leave packets, and HR training exercises. JustFill provides an instant browser-compatible fillable DA Form 31 PDF with every block from Control Number (Block 1) to Departure/Return Authority (Blocks 14–17).
The official DA Form 31 is published by the Army Publishing Directorate (APD) at armypubs.army.mil under AR 600-8-10. Because the APD file is an XFA PDF that breaks in standard web browsers, click "Fill the blank DA Form 31 now" above to open a clean, browser-ready fillable DA Form 31 directly in JustFill.
What each section of DA Form 31 asks for. JustFill’s AI will detect these fields automatically when you upload the PDF — review the breakdown below so you know what to enter.
Block 1 (Leave Control Number assigned by S-1/Staff Duty after approval), Block 2 (Soldier Name: Last, First, MI), Block 3 (DoD ID / SSN), Block 4 (Rank/Pay Grade), Block 5 (Date of Request in YYYYMMDD format), and Block 6 (Organization, Unit, Station & ZIP).
Block 7 (Ordinary, Emergency, Permissive TDY, Convalescent, Transition/Terminal, or Other), Block 8 (Complete street address, city, state, ZIP, and phone number while on leave), Block 9 (Accrued, Requested, and Advanced/Excess leave days from LES), Block 10 (From/To dates requested), and Block 11 (Soldier Signature).
Block 12 (Supervisor recommendation checkbox, rank, and signature) and Block 13 (Approving Commander/Authority signature, title, and date).
Blocks 14 & 16 record the exact date, time, and Staff Duty / S-1 authenticating signature upon departure and return; Block 15 records any approved extension; Block 17 (Remarks) documents emergency Red Cross case numbers, PTDY authority under AR 600-8-10, or mileage/pass restrictions.
