Verify Shared Housing Residency for School Enrollment

This School Enrollment Shared Housing Affidavit of Residency and Homeowner Declaration Form helps families who live with a relative, friend, or other host prove their address when enrolling a student. When a parent or guardian does not have a lease, deed, or utility bill in their own name, schools typically need a sworn statement from the homeowner or leaseholder confirming that the family lives at the residence. This template organizes that process into three clear sections: parent/guardian and student information, a homeowner or leaseholder declaration with proof of residency, and a sworn affirmation with signatures.

The form is designed for school districts, charter and private schools, registrars, enrollment offices, and family liaisons who need consistent, verifiable residency documentation. Parents enter their contact details, the shared residence address, their move-in date, and each student living in the home. Homeowners or leaseholders provide their name, phone number, status at the property, relationship to the students, and household size, then upload a mortgage statement, deed, tax bill, or lease along with a utility bill dated within the last 30 days. Government-issued photo IDs are collected for both adults. A built-in question about loss of housing or economic hardship helps staff identify students who may qualify for additional support services under the federal McKinney-Vento Act.

Using an online affidavit replaces scattered paper packets and missing attachments with a single, complete submission. Every document is collected in one place, making residency reviews faster and audits easier. Customize the wording to match your district's policies, add your own affirmation language, and share the form by link or embed it on your enrollment page to start verifying residency today.
