The Confirmation of Residence letter is a piece of ID you can use to prove your address, if one of these living situations applies to you:
· you live on a First Nations reserve or in an Inuit hamlet
· you are a student living on campus
· you live in a seniors' residence, long-term care facility or shelter
· you live on the streets, but use the services of a shelter or soup kitchen
You can get this letter from the administrator of a First Nations band or reserve, an Inuit local authority, a student residence, seniors' residence, long-term care facility, shelter or soup kitchen.
Print the attached letter if you can and ask the administrator to complete it and sign it. Elections Canada will also accept a letter from the administrator that is printed on the letterhead of the establishment. When you go vote, bring the letter and a second piece of ID with your name.
