How to Use Guide

Landlords often request written proof of residence. This proof of residency letter is formatted for landlord review.

When a landlord writes a proof of residency letter

A landlord proof of residency letter is written by a landlord or property manager to confirm that a tenant currently lives — or previously lived — at a rental address. Tenants usually ask for one when applying for a new lease elsewhere, enrolling a child in school, claiming a government benefit, or updating their address at the DMV.

Because a landlord is a neutral third party, this letter carries more weight than an address you simply write down yourself. It should state the tenant's full name, the complete rental address, and the dates of tenancy, and it can note that the tenant is in good standing if the recipient asks for that.

What the landlord should include so it gets accepted

  • Tenant's full legal name, matching the application it supports.
  • The full rental address, including unit number, city, state, and ZIP.
  • Move-in date — and move-out date if the tenant has left.
  • The landlord's name and direct contact, so the recipient can verify it by phone or email.
  • A dated signature. Some offices, such as the DMV or a court, also ask for it to be notarized.
