Department of Defense form 1096. Official designation: DD Form 1096, Military Pay and Allowance Claims Voucher, October 1957. Purpose: Military Pay and Allowance Claim Voucher. Current edition not stated, status not stated.
Governing directive: not stated. Responsible office: not stated. The DD designation signals joint scope — all military departments, combatant commands and defense agencies draw on a single edition of the document.
Users include uniformed members of any branch, DoD civilian employees, contractor personnel where authorized, and the administrative staff who process the completed record.
Submission follows the schedule set by not stated and by local implementing procedures. This page provides the blank form for download and general orientation only.
The download set covers PDF. Document length is 1 pages with about 40 entry fields.
The pdf is the primary distribution format. A fillable pdf accepts typed entries in defined field boxes and stores them in the file; a printable pdf is a flat image of the blank, meant for pen entry after printing. The distinction matters for legibility and for records that pass between offices.

The document is filled from the top down. Identification precedes substance, substance precedes certification. Fields lower on the page are commonly keyed to entries made above them.
Verify the edition date against not stated before entry. Department-level revisions replace the blank across every service simultaneously, so an old copy in a desk drawer may no longer correspond to current field numbering.
Instructions printed on the form or in not stated govern individual field entries. Where the two differ, the governing publication controls.
Once executed, routing follows not stated and the submitting organization's own instruction. Keeping a copy is standard.
Associated forms are traced by number within the series. Because the DD sequence is common to all military departments, no service qualifier is needed to identify a referenced form.
A DD number and a DA number may appear in the same instruction without being related. DA forms belong to the Army alone; DD forms belong to the Department and are administered at Department level. The sequences are independent.
Forms are reissued for several reasons: directive revision, changed data requirements, updated notice language. Confirming not stated at the moment of download covers the risk.
The material here is descriptive. Nothing on the page constitutes legal or procedural advice, and no statement here determines whether a submitted form will be accepted. Such questions go to not stated, a servicing administrative office, or the authority identified in not stated.
