The Homeschool Affidavit is a crucial document required by most U.S. states for parents choosing to educate their children at home. It serves as both a notice of intent and a legal declaration of compliance with state education requirements. This document typically needs to be filed annually and includes essential information about the parent/guardian's qualifications, student details, and planned educational approach. The specific requirements vary significantly by state, with some requiring detailed curriculum plans while others accept minimal documentation.

1. Parent/Guardian Information: Legal name, contact information, and qualifications of parent/guardian providing home instruction

2. Student Information: Name, age, grade level, and previous schooling details of student(s) to be homeschooled

3. Educational Program Declaration: Statement of intent to provide home-based instruction and acknowledgment of educational responsibilities

4. Compliance Statement: Declaration of compliance with state education laws and requirements including minimum instruction days/hours

5. Verification: Signature and date under penalty of perjury, affirming all statements are true and correct
