A school proof of residency letter requires the student to get acknowledgment from a parent, employer, or landlord that they have lived in a location for a period of time. This is often required for two (2) reasons: (1) to allow a minor to attend elementary, middle, or high school in a specific district or (2) to apply to in-state tuition while attending a college or university.
The affidavit should be completed by a third (3rd) party and a piece of documentation should accompany the letter such as a receipt, bill, or other paper evidence that shows the individual has resided at the mentioned address.
