What is SF 1150?
Standard Form 1150, Record of Leave Data, is a federal form that gathers one person's leave figures in a single record: annual and sick leave, lump-sum leave, absence without pay, home leave and military leave, together with the date and nature of separation.
The form is organized in blocks. Lines 1 to 6 identify the person and the separation, and ask whether the 45-day leave ceiling under 5 U.S.C. 6304(B) applies. Lines 7 to 13 are the Summary of Annual and Sick Leave: carryover balance, current leave year accrual, reductions in credits, leave taken, the balance and hours paid in a lump sum. Line 14 gives the salary rate or rates per hour, and line 15 lists the lump-sum leave dates. Lines 16 and 17 cover absence without pay. Lines 18 to 22 are the Summary of Home Leave. Line 23 records military leave. Line 24 is for remarks, and lines 25 to 27 carry the certification.
The printed footer identifies it as STANDARD FORM 1150 (REV. 12-77), form number 1150-113, with the Civil Service Commission and FPM Supp. 296-31 and 990-2 named as its origin. GSA hosts the PDF on its website. The form is a record of leave data: it does not apply for leave and does not itself pay out any leave.
Who needs to file SF 1150?
The form is placed with people who have to document a person's leave balances at separation from service. Its lines ask for the individual's name and Social Security number, the date and nature of separation, years of service, leave balances and a certifying signature, so it is used by whoever prepares or reviews that leave record.
- The person certifying the record signs line 25 and gives a title, agency, address and telephone number on line 26.
- Home leave lines 18 to 22 apply only when there is a basic service period of 24 months of continuous service abroad, so they stay blank for records without it.
- Military leave on line 23 applies to leave during the current calendar year.
The form does not say who is required to complete it, and it names no exclusions or representatives. Questions about whether it applies to a particular separation go to the agency that keeps the leave record.
When to file SF 1150
The form is tied to a separation from service. Line 4 asks for the date and nature of separation, line 6 asks for total service as of the date of separation, line 11 totals leave taken through the date of separation, and line 21 gives the twelve months accrual as of the date of separation. The record is therefore prepared when the separation occurs or the data is needed for it.
No due date is printed on the form. Line 8 runs through a pay period ending date, and line 5B asks for the last date the 45-day leave ceiling applied, so gather those dates and balances before you begin.

Common mistakes to avoid
- Leaving lines 25 to 27 incomplete: the form is closed by a signature, the certifier's title, agency, address and telephone number, and a date.
- Skipping the Yes or No answer in line 5A on the 45-day leave ceiling under 5 U.S.C. 6304(B), then leaving 5B and 5C blank when the ceiling applied.
- Not explaining in Remarks (line 24) when the 90 day restriction applies to the current leave year accrual on line 8.
- Not explaining a part-time tour in Remarks when entering lump-sum leave dates on line 15.
- Counting hours of absence without pay during military service or while in receipt of OWCP payments in the line 17B total, which excludes them.
- Leaving out holiday hours on line 13, which the form says are included in the hours paid in a lump sum.
- Omitting years, months and days on line 6 when total service is less than 15 years.
- Leaving out shore leave information in Remarks when it applies.
