Dd Form 1746 PDF Details

When military members, their families, or Department of Defense (DoD) civilians need housing, the DD Form 1746 is the required first step. This document, officially titled Application for Assignment to Housing, streamlines the process so applicants are matched with suitable living arrangements based on their specific needs and service circumstances.

Who Uses DD Form 1746

The form is used by active-duty service members, reservists on active orders, and DoD civilians who are relocating under official orders. Family members accompanying a military sponsor also complete this form. The Housing Referral Section lets applicants choose between on-post military housing and community housing near the installation.

Key Sections of the Form

The DD 1746 collects information across several areas:

• Personal and service information, including rank, branch of service, and expected reporting date
• Dependent data, covering the number and ages of family members who will occupy the housing unit
• Section IV Housing Data, where applicants indicate the preferred housing type (purchase or rent, house or apartment) and desired amenities such as number of bedrooms and whether pets are allowed
• Notice of Requirement to Disclose, which covers information about registered sex offenders in the household per DoD policy

How to Submit

Take the completed form to the housing office on your installation. Most installations process applications in the order they arrive. Contact your unit housing coordinator if you are unsure which office handles your specific request.
