One common instance in which people need to prove residency is when they are applying to study at college. The requirements will vary so you have to start by asking the financial aid office how long you must reside in the state to be eligible for in-state tuition. Most state colleges require one year of residency, but others only require three to six months. Use the online list to find your college. You should be sure to have your residency situation clarified with your college well in advance of the start of the semester. This will mean you can avoid stress and problems with fees when you are beginning college. If you haven't proven your residency by the date of your enrolment you may have to pay non-resident tuition fees. The most important thing is to provide the official required documentation for your state or college, but there are other ways to demonstrate an intention to establish residence. For example, opening a local bank account, registering a vehicle in the state, or getting a local library card, are all ways of indicating your intention to remain. These are not substitutes to the official requirements, but you can use them to supplement and strengthen your claim. As well as considering your residency and ties to the state you are applying in, you should be aware that your relationship to another state can be taken into consideration. If you have demonstrably strong ties to another state this may harm your claim to residency in the state you are applying in. For example, if you own a house in another state, have a driver's license or are registered to vote in a different state, the assessor may question your intention to maintain or establish permanent residency. These are not conclusive factors, but should be taken into account.

All chemicals, including substances like window cleaner or antibacterial cleaner, have the ability to remove the protective coating on the screen, which will inevitably result in a shorter life for your device. Never use a substance other than water to clean the screen. Don't use cleaners meant for LCD screens, either. Those are meant for a different type of material, and they're harmful to iPhone and iPod Touch screens. Even natural substances like vinegar and lemon juice are too abrasive for cleaning the screen of an iPhone or iPod screen. Water is fine to use in very small amounts, but it should never be directly poured or dripped on the screen. Always use a microfiber cloth to transfer a little moisture to the screen, and make sure to wipe it off right away with a dry cloth. Submerging an iPhone or iPod Touch in water is a sure way to ruin it. Don't try to soak it in an effort to remove a stubborn stain. If you accidentally get too much water on the screen, examine the user manual that came with your device to determine what steps you can take to fix it. Using an abrasive towel, or even a paper towel or napkin, can scratch and damage the screen of an iPhone or iPod Touch. If you lost the cloth that came with your device, you can pick up a new one at a computer store, or use a cloth meant for cleaning the lenses on glasses. If your device's screen has been damaged by a stain that won't wipe away, check out the warranty that came with it to determine whether you can take it in to have it cleaned or repaired. Trying to do so yourself may result in further damage.

You will want to fix your safe between studs to allow it to be recessed inside your wall and thus less noticeable. Use a stud finder to locate the studs behind the wall by running the stud finder across your wall. The tool will have an indicator to show when it has found a stud. Stud finders can be purchased from your local hardware store. If you don't have a stud finder you can knock on the wall and listen for a hollow or solid sound. If the sound is hollow then the location is probably between studs; if it sounds solid then there is likely a stud in this location. Knock a nail into the wall. As you hammer you will be able to feel if you hit a stud by the way the nail goes into the wall. These holes will be covered once you have installed your wall safe. Use a pencil to mark the locations of the studs on the wall. This will help orient your lines when you cut out the section of the wall. After you've found a good safe and a place to install it between studs, you are ready to cut into your wall. Cut out a small square of space big enough for your hand to fit through. If you find wires you need to be extra careful to go around them or reroute them. If you find plumbing in the way you may need to find a new location. If the wall is clear, you are ready to cut out a space for your safe. If something is in the way and you are not confident in your ability to safely move or go around it, the best option is to find a new section of wall. Mark the four corners of your square hole using a pencil. Use a level to make level lines between the four corners. It is essential that the top and bottom are parallel with the ground while the sides are parallel with your studs. The hole should be close enough to a stud so that you can attach it to your safe later. Make sure to measure and level correctly so that you don't end up with an uneven or wrongly sized hole. Use your drywall saw to cut along the marked lines. Start with the bottom edge of the opening and then cut the sides. You should cut the top line last to make sure the piece does not fall out beforehand, creating an uneven line. Put your safe into the hole, remembering to keep it help up with your hand. The door is the heaviest part of the safe due to the locking mechanism so be careful to hold up the corner so that it doesn't fall out on you. Drill holes into the sides that match with the holes on the interior of your safe. Drill in each screw and then tighten them firmly. This is an important step that prevents burglars from simply cutting your safe out of the wall and walking away with the whole thing. Place the shelves inside the safe in their desired locations, making sure you line them up correctly. Some shelves will have cutouts to make space for the door locking mechanism and door hinges; make sure these cutouts are in the correct locations.
