If you haven't moved to Boston yet, you may be out of luck claiming residency for the upcoming test. In order to claim preference, you have to reside within the city for AT LEAST 1 YEAR before the exam. Which means you had to have moved into Boston around April/May 2006.

Im not talkin about residency for the test. Im recidency for employment on BPD. They say you have to be a resident at the time of employment.

In order to claim a residency pref. for the civil service exam, you must reside
in the city/town for one year prior to the exam date. For a lateral, you have
to move to Boston if you do not live there, by the date of appointment.
If I remember correctly,I submitted a gas bill and my apt lease agreement to show residency.

One. Anything that has your Boston Address on it. Also, if you want a no BS answer to your question try calling BPD directly.....LOL. Good luck.

Are you trying to get a civilian job with BPD? If so, you have to be a resident upon being offered the job. This is true for most of the city's employees.

If that is the case, any type of utility bill will do, as would an apartment lease, something showing you registered to vote in Boston or insurance paperwork for your car showing you switched it over to Boston etc.
