GSA Form 1142 (GSA 1142), Release of Claims, is a one-page General Services Administration (GSA) form, printed as GSA 1142 (REV. 5/2015) with OMB Control Number 3090-0080 and an expiration date of 9/30/2027. GSA hosts it in its forms library, and GSA's page lists PBS P 2800.6A as its authority or regulation.

The form is a statement by the undersigned contractor on a numbered contract between the United States of America and the contractor. In its words, the contractor does "hereby release the United States from any and all claims arising under or by virtue of said contract or any modification or change thereof except as follows", and it asks the contractor to list any claims against the Government and the amounts thereof, or, if none, to so state.

The contractor signs with a witness, and the form has a place for a seal. GSA estimates it will take 6 minutes to read the instructions, gather the facts and answer the questions. You can fill it out free in your browser on this page and download the result without an account.
