ILLINOIS STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION
AFFIDAVIT OF ENROLLMENT AND RESIDENCY
This affidavit form may be used if you are an adult who has assumed responsibility for a pupil and provide the pupil with a fixed, night-
time abode, for reasons other than access to the educational programs of the school district.
This form should not be used, however, if you are the natural or adoptive parent of the pupil, have been granted court-ordered custody
or guardianship, or are receiving public aid on behalf of the pupil. For these situations, you are only required to provide documentation
(such as a birth certificate or court order), without the need of an affidavit like this one.
This form is also not required for pupils who are sharing the housing of others due to lack of housing, economic hardship, or similar
reason, or are otherwise homeless as defined in state and federal law. Homeless pupils must be enrolled immediately.
If you have any questions about residency, including homelessness, please contact the Illinois State Board of Education’s Educator and
School Development Division at (217) 782-2948.
