I know that some flight planning software has a specific CA ADD FUEL line where you put in how much fuel the CA wants and it just adds that number to the rest of the fuel on the plan. Might be a reason box too to explain why. Some programs also auto append a message to the flight release under the remarks section such as
REMARKS
=============
CA REQUESTED 1000 (OR 10.0 DEPENDING ON PROGRAM) OF CA ADD FUEL DUE TO (INSERT REASON SUCH AS WX,ATC, ETC ETC)
another way it could appear is
ADDED XXX POUNDS OF FUEL AT CAPTAIN REQUEST DUE TO (REASON)
ive never heard of a actual form being sent to the CP for additional fuel, usually they would just pull random audits of OFPs.
