NC Residency Requirements
NC Residency
In order to meet North Carolina state residency requirements to be Medicaid eligible, an individual must be domiciled in North Carolina
with the intention to remain here permanently or for an indefinite period or show that he entered North Carolina to seek employment or
with a job commitment. A person is domiciled in North Carolina if North Carolina is his fixed, established, or permanent place of residence
with the intention to remain there permanently or for an indefinite period.
To verify NC residency, two documents from two of the categories below need to be provided. This means a document or proof must be
from two of the little letters below. Example: An item from c and d would be acceptable. Two documents in b are not acceptable.
Applicants who do not have two of the documents must complete and sign the declaration below that they do not have two of the
documents listed.
a. A valid North Carolina drivers’ license or other identification card issued by the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles.
b. A current North Carolina rent, lease, or mortgage payment receipt, two bank statements, or current utility bill in the name of the
applicant or the applicant’s legal spouse, showing a North Carolina address.
c. A current North Carolina motor vehicle registration in the applicant’s name and showing the applicant’s current North Carolina
address.
d. A document verifying that the applicant is employed in North Carolina.
e. One or more documents proving that the applicant’s home in the applicant’s prior state of residence has ended, such as closing of
a bank account, termination of employment, or sale of a home.
f. The tax records of the applicant or the applicant’s legal spouse, showing a current North Carolina address.
g. A document showing that the applicant has registered with a public or private employment service in North Carolina.
h. A document showing that the applicant has enrolled his children in a public or a private school or a child care facility located in
North Carolina.
i. A document showing that the applicant is receiving public assistance (such as Food Stamps) or other services which require proof
of residence in North Carolina. Work First and Energy Assistance do not currently require proof of NC residency.
j. Records from a health department or other health care provider located in North Carolina which shows the applicant’s current
North Carolina address.
k. A written declaration from an individual who has a social, family or economic relationship with the applicant, and who has
personal knowledge of the applicant’s intent to live North Carolina permanently, for an indefinite period of time, or residing in
North Carolina in order to seek employment or with a job commitment.
l. A current North Carolina voter registration card.
m. A document from the US Department of Veteran’s Affairs, US Military or the US Department of Homeland Security verifying the
applicant’s intent to live in North Carolina permanently or for an indefinite period of time, or that the applicant is residing in North
Carolina to seek employment or has a job commitment.
