We are staying on rent since last year.

We have Aadhar of child and both parents for this rented address. But some schools are asking for 2 address proofs. I don't have any other proof right now.

My wife has already applied for a Domicile certificate. Schools are saying in their guidelines/ procedure, that they need "Domicile certificate of the child or of his/her parents".

So schools would be satisfied with domicile certificate of my wife? Or they need domicile cert. of both parents ?

It's better to have one since many schools since last year made mandatory.

(b) Domicile certificate of child or of his/her parents.

"Domicile certificate of child or of his/her parents" - Does this mean domicile cert. of both parents are needed if domicile cert. of child is not available?
