Forms for Families

On this page, you'll find the forms you might need to enroll in a DOE public school.

  • New to NYC? Fill out the Housing Questionnaire and provide to your new school or a Family Welcome Center.

  • If you're not the primary leaseholder or homeowner where you live, fill out the Parent Affidavit of Residency.

  • If you're temporarily taking care of a student but are not their parent or guardian, fill out the Non-Parent Affidavit.

  • We speak your language! If your home language is not English, be sure to request a Home Language Identification Survey from your school or a Family Welcome Center. Interpretation services are available in more than 200 languages.

Please note: Forms do NOT need to be notarized. If any form includes a section on notarization, just leave it blank.

Forms for Families and Staff

These forms are posted here for schools and Family Welcome Center staff to share with families. Each form is available in ten languages, and most forms are PDFs that can be filled out online. For children entering grades 3-K through kindergarten in September 2020, please reach out to the program where you’ve accepted an offer regarding specific registration instructions.

Students in temporary housing, as defined by the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, are not required to submit documentation (including address, proof of date of birth, and immunization records) in order to participate in any admission process or enroll in school. Read the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act on our New Students page.
