One of the forms of proof is a paystub which shows D.C. taxes being taken out. I think the majority of the uproar is about people who buy big mansions in MD, expensive cars, have an income, and yet take advantage of the D.C. public school system. Those who are FARMS, assuming your family includes 6 children or less with an income of 33k or less (http://www.fns.usda.gov/school-meals/income-eligibility-guidelines).  Anyone making 34k or more should submit a paystub or proof of owning their own business. If they do not have proof of income because they are not paying taxes, working side jobs, etc., then they should apply for FARMS. If there is FARMS/Tax fraud, then that is on them if they are willing to go to such extremes. The paystub will get a big swath of out of city people who use D.C. because it is convenient on their way to work. [/quote]

I don't know about all federal government agencies, but DoD refuses to put your home address on your pay stubs. [/quote]

Not the address, just the part that shows income tax is being paid to D.C. If you reside in D.C., you have to pay income tax.[/quote]

For any employer than has a self-service HR system it is beyond easy to go into it, change your address for a couple pay periods to one in the District. For those two pay periods you will have paid taxes to DC withheld, but then as soon as you've registered your child, you can switch it back.

Pay stubs can be just as easy to fake if you are motivated as anything else.[/quote]

Federal pay stubs do not have home address on them.  The federal government made an expensive and concerted effort to make all payments direct deposit about 10 years ago.  I can tell you from experience that you cannot prove residency with federal pay stubs or W-2 forms.  [/quote]

I am looking at my federal paystub and there is a line that says "DC Withholding"[/quote]

I'm looking at my federal pay stub and[b] IT DOES NOT HAVE MY ADDRESS.[/b][/quote]

A problem if you are trying to prove boundary schools. Not a problem for D.C. charter schools. Sometimes mortgage companies require HRs to submit letters of proof. Maybe it needs to get that crazy.[/quote]
