  • Submit documentation of expenses (e.g.: lease and bills, housing contracts, etc.). If you do not have a formal lease (e.g.: you are renting from a family member) or if you're living with roommates, please include what you have to verify your living arrangement, a copy of the master lease/mortgage, and complete our sublease agreement form. You need to be able to provide documentation of the housing option you plan on using. Estimates for multiple possible housing options are not acceptable.
