Depending on how you filled out your application update form this will determine what information will be required. To establish California residency there must be a union of physical presence in California and the intent to become a resident.

• Physical presence is established after one year of continuous residence in California completing at least a day before the semester for which application is being made. Physical presence within the state solely for educational purposes does not constitute establishing California residence, regardless of the length of that presence.
• Intent is established through completion of the specific items listed on the residency form.
