TITLE 16 HEALTH AND SAFETY DELAWARE ADMINISTRATIVE CODE 18 3. Three or more documents that together reasonably corroborate the identity of an individual provided such documents have not been used to establish the individual's citizenship and the individual submitted second or third level evidence of citizenship. Such documents must at a minimum contain the individual's name, plus any additional information establishing the individual's identity. All documents used must contain consistent identifying information. These documents include employer identification cards, high school and college diplomas from accredited institutions (including general education and high school equivalency diplomas), marriage certificates, divorce decrees, and property deeds/titles. F. Special identity rules for children For children under age 16, a clinic, doctor, hospital, or school record may be accepted. School records include nursery or daycare records and report cards if verified with the issuing school. If none of the above documents in the preceding groups are available, an affidavit may be used. An affidavit is only acceptable if it is signed under penalty of perjury by a parent, guardian, or caretaker relative stating the date and place of the birth of the child and cannot be used if an affidavit for citizenship was provided. The affidavit is not required to be notarized. An affidavit for children under age 18 may be accepted when a school ID card or driver’s license is not available. G. Special identity rules for individuals with disabilities in institutional care facilities An affidavit signed under penalty of perjury by a residential care facility director or administrator on behalf of an institutionalized individual in the facility. 13 DE Reg. 1540 (06/01/10) 14410 Acceptable Evidence of Qualified Alien Status Documentation of alien status is issued by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) of the Department of Homeland Security. Older documents were issued by the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS). Acceptable documentation of qualified alien status is listed below. The card should show the date of admission or date of entry into the United States. A. Lawful Permanent Residents Form I-551, or for recent arrivals, a temporary I-551 stamp in a foreign passport or on Form I-94. NOTE: USCIS has replaced Forms I-151, AR-3 and AR-3a. If a lawful permanent resident presents one of these old forms as evidence of status, contact USCIS using a G-845S and attach the old card. B. Refugees Form I-94 annotated with stamp showing entry as refugee under §207 of the Immigration and Naturalization Act (INA) and date of entry to the United States; Form I-688B annotated 274a.2(a)(3); I-766 annotated A3; or Form I-571. Refugees usually adjust to Lawful Permanent Resident status after 12 months in the U.S. However, for purposes of eligibility, the individual is still considered a refugee and it is important to check the coding on Form I-551 for codes RE-6, RE-7, RE-8, or RE-9. C. Asylees Form I-94 annotated with stamp showing grant of asylum under §208 of the INA; a grant letter from the Asylum Office of the USCIS; Form I-688B annotated 274a.12(a)(5); I-766 annotated A5; or an order of an Immigration Judge granting asylum. If the applicant provides a court order contact USCIS using a G-845S and attach a copy of the court order. D. Alien who has had deportation withheld under §243(h) of the INA Order of an Immigration Judge showing deportation withheld under §243(h) or §241(b)(3) and date of the grant; Form I-688B annotated 274a.12(a)(10); or I-766 annotated A10. If applicant provides a court order contact USCIS using G-845S and attach copy of court order. E. Parolees Form I-94 annotated with stamp showing grant of parole under §212(d)(5) of the INA and a date showing granting of parole for at least 1 year. Form I-688B annotated 274a.12(a)(4) or 274a.12(c)(11) or I-766 annotated A4 or C11 indicates status as a parolee but does not reflect the length of the parole period. F. Conditional Entrant Form I-94 annotated with stamp showing admission under §203(a)(7) of the INA, refugee-conditional entry; Forms I-688B annotated 274a.12(a)(3); or I-766 annotated A-3.
