What is a Declaration of Residency?
Families who live in a residence other than their home residence (i.e. living with another member of the family or living with a friend). In order to complete a Declaration of Residency, the owner/leasee must be present at the time of the appointment. In addition, the owner/leasee must show two proofs of residency (e.g. current rental agreement/mortgage/property tax, AND a recent utility bill, pay stub, voter registration, or correspondence from a government agency). The parent/guardian and owner/leasee must also present photo identification (e.g. government issued identification).
