The DA Form 5252-R, officially titled "Statement of Evidence of Citizenship Status," verifies that a soldier or applicant is a U.S. citizen. The form collects name, date of birth, place of birth, and the legal basis for the citizenship claim.
Released on November 1, 1983, by the Department of the Army, it is a single-page document with no separate published instructions. Completed forms are submitted to the administrative office with a U.S. birth certificate, valid passport, or Certificate of Naturalization.
Army personnel complete DA Form 5252-R during initial entry training, security clearance applications, or when transferring to military occupational specialties that require verified citizenship.
