Sec. 10a-30. (Formerly Sec. 10-329f). Presumptions. Unless the contrary appears to the satisfaction of the registering authority of the institution at which a student
is registering, it shall be presumed that:
(1) The establishment of a new domicile in this state by an emancipated person has
not occurred until he has resided in this state for a period of not less than one year;
(2) No emancipated person shall be deemed to have gained residence while attending any educational institution in this state as a full-time student, as such status is
defined by the governing board of such institution, in the absence of a clear demonstration that he has established domicile in the state;
(3) Once established, a domicile is not lost by mere absence unaccompanied by
intention to establish a new domicile;
(4) The domicile of any emancipated person receiving regular financial assistance
from his parent, or whose parent's income was taken into account by any private or
governmental agency furnishing financial educational assistance to such person, including scholarships, loans or otherwise, is that of his parent. Notwithstanding the definition
of "parent" contained in subsection (5) of section 10a-28, if such person's parents have
separate domiciles, his domicile shall be that of the parent furnishing him the greater
financial assistance, or of the parent having the larger income if neither furnishes such
assistance; and
(5) A person does not gain or lose in-state status by reason of his presence in any
state or country while a member of the armed forces of the United States; provided a
member of the armed forces may obtain in-state status for himself and his dependents
by establishing his domicile in this state.
