===Earliest Time===
# The earliest time to put on [[Tefillin]] is the time of [[MeSheyakir]]. <ref> Shulchan Aruch 30:1 </ref>
# One who will incur significant loss by not donning Tefillin earlier than alot hashachar may do so<ref>Igrot Moshe OC 1:10. Rav Moshe Feinstein writes here that one who will lose more than one-fifth of his income by not accepting work that requires such early hours ought to put on Tefillin with a berakha, since it is not worth losing a positive commandment due to a rabbinic prohibition. In this situation, the reason for Chazal’s ruling does not apply since there should be no reason to be concerned that he will fall asleep.</ref>, and seemingly in any situation in which one would not be able to do so the rest of the day.<ref>Piskei Teshuvot 30:1. An example given here is if one must undergo surgery and will not be able to fulfill the mitzvah later. One should not make a berakha before misheyakir in such situations.</ref>
# One who needs to travel before alot hashachar should wait until the proper time to don Tefillin.<ref> Mishnah Berurah 30:14. While the Shulchan Arukh allows donning Tefillin before alot hashachar and making the berakha at misheyakir for one who needs to travel, this would only seem to apply when one is travelling by foot. However, as we tend to travel by vehicle, there is still a concern that one may fall asleep when sitting while wearing Tefillin. The Arukh Ha-Shulchan (OC 30:5) agrees with this view.</ref>
