What documents are needed to register?

We need a few official documents in order to get to know you:

• A photo ID for the parent or guardian, such as a driver's license, passport, BC Services Card, or BCID card.
• Evidence of legal guardianship, such as the child's birth certificate or other documentation like a landed immigrant document or guardianship order.
• Evidence of the child’s birth date, such as a birth certificate or passport of the child.

In order to show the parent or guardian lives in B.C., we also need a valid government-issued document showing your address. This can be a BC Driver's License, BC Services Card, BCID card, or ICBC vehicle registration document.

* Please note that if you don't have any of these documents, don't worry! There are many other options available to verify your name and address, like providing two pieces of mail. Your school will be happy to work with you to find a solution to get your child registered as quickly as possible.
