I have set the choices list in the view: choices = SomeModel.objects.filter(user=request.user).values_list('id','label')
Then, after the form is instantiated, modify the choices attribute of the ChoiceField: form = SomeOtherModelForm() form.fields['model_dropdown'].choices = choices Works in a similar fashion with a ModelChoiceField and the queryset attribute.
