How does one file the Private School Affidavit?
The Private School Affidavit on the CDE Web site can be filed online or by mail. From the Web page linked above, follow the links to the form of the Affidavit that is appropriate for your situation. The Submit Form button at the end of the online form must be selected to complete the online filing process. If filled out fully and submitted, your online Affidavit’s information enters the CDE database of private schools immediately. If the filer provides a school e-mail address, CDE immediately sends an automated confirmation e-mail and confirmation number. If a paper form of the Affidavit is submitted, no confirmation is sent and entry of the information into the data base may be delayed. It is the responsibility of the filer to keep a copy of the Affidavit and/or a copy of the confirmation number for the year’s filing. NOTE: The online Affidavit is unavailable for filing from the close of the filing period until the following October 1. The link to the Affidavit is not available for fi
