Paternity leave must be taken within 45 days of the child's birth; deployed Soldiers must take the leave within 60 days after returning from deployment. Leave not taken within the established timeframe will be lost. Single Soldiers who father a child out-of-wedlock are not eligible for paternity leave.

However, the Army will continue to review how to increase the amount of time Soldiers spend at home depending on the amount of time they are deployed.
