In Conclusion
Do not submit fraudulent Proof of Home Address as schools have systems to verify such documents.
Given the rate of fraudulent Proofs of Home Addresses submitted in the previous years of the Online Admissions Application, some schools resorted to visiting applicants in person to verify their addresses.
The GDE is in support of this action as it curbs the application of parents who seek to gain unfair entry into the system and schools, which defeats the purpose of the system being equitable for all parents.
