What is a Domicile Letter?
A domicile letter is an official certification of your residential address obtained from your Local Government Council. For married Corpers, NYSC mandates obtaining this letter from the Local Government where their husbands reside.
Recognizing the importance of keeping married couples together, NYSC encourages married female members to serve in the same area where their husbands reside through “Concessional deployment.”
So, to determine the exact location of their husbands, the management requires every married female Corper to produce their husbands’ domicile letters.
The domicile letter serves as proof of the husband’s residential address and must be uploaded during online registration. This enables NYSC to post them to the exact location where their husbands reside.
How to Get a Domicile Letter for NYSC Concessional Deployment
Obtaining a domicile letter is straight forward. Visit the local government where your husband resides and request a domicile letter for him. It’s advisable to go with your husband or have him obtain it, as there might be specific information required that you may not be aware of.
Please note that requirements vary between local governments, so visit the local government where your husband resides to inquire about domicile letter requirements.
