[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd be interested in hearing folks speculate on the methodology the OIG might use to do this investigation. It seems to me that the Office of Tax and Revenue is the only city agency that would have independent records of a guardian/child relationship plus a claimed DC resident status where addresses could be verified/checked.

The data from the schools will necessarily only have one parent name, which could change year to year (depending on who fills out the residency forms). Connecting the parent/child name from the school to some other city records (using address?) seems really time/labor intensive. [/quote]

Child welfare would have some address and guardianship records for both children and adults.

Child Support maintains a lot of parent-child relationship records so they can get the right payments to the right people.  They may have parental addresses as well.

Medicaid has a ton of data on families.[/quote]

I haven't looked at the letter, but they may not be auditing student residency, but how well schools are doing complying with the requirements to check residency. There are lots of thoughts (as PP) on how to change the residency check, so they may just be asking how well schools are doing at the current system. (Do the names match on all the documents, are they the right documents, etc.)[/quote]
