What is an Affidavit of Residence?
There are times when a court or a business will ask you to prove where you live. If you would like to verify your residence to change your children's school district, provide proof for a court or other institution, or if you would like to verify the residence of a deceased person, then an Affidavit of Residence may be the right document for you.

What is a Residency Affidavit?
A Residency Affidavit is a legal document that you can use to verify your residence and the residency of anyone living with you. An Affidavit will often be used in response to a school, financial institution, court, or other entity's request for proof of residency.
You may also need to use this Affidavit to verify where someone lived before their death. Certain agencies or institutions often ask you to verify the residency of a deceased family member before releasing the family member's accounts or funds. In this case, a copy of the death certificate may be required as an attachment to the Affidavit.
