If you live in an informal settlement and cannot provide a formal address, the RICA AGENT can verify the address of the informal settlement by means of a letter and/or affidavit. Such letter should confirm you reside in the informal settlement. In addition, the letter must have an official letterhead and official stamp of the school or church or the retail store;
If you have refugee status, your asylum seeker document can be used as proof, however, it must be current and valid, and not outside the exclusionary period, i.e. it must not have expired.
