[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the properties are yours and you’re not formally renting either or you’re moving back and forth between them seasonally, do what you want. Hint: DC isn’t an authoritarian state.[/quote]

that last bit is a nonsequitur. DC isn’t an “authoritarian state” but it does have laws. when you sign the OSSE residency form you are attesting under penalty of perjury that you actually live at that address - not that you own the property. you probably won’t get caught but please be clear on this - there is no property ownership loophole for school boundaries in DC. [/quote]

There is also no boundary law on the books to break for DC residents. Only out of state residents. [/quote]

That’s totally untrue. DC regulations spell out the boundary system based on residence. When you complete your OSSE enrollment form you attest that you are being truthful about your residence. Residence can be factually tricky to determine in some cases, but it’s defined as the place you live and intend to continue living. So yes, if you put down an address where you don’t live and don’t intend to continue living, you’re engaging in fraud & perjury. It’s more serious in terms of consequences if you live out of state, but still fraud and perjury. [/quote]
