Declaration of Domicile is a formal document that varies by county. You can find an example of it here. It usually boils down to a brief statement of where your former residence was and where your new residence is, which is then notarized and filed with the Clerk of Court in your new county.
Domiciles can be any house or apartment, inium, or co-op. It is the place where you plan to live indefinitely. You can have more than one residence, but your domicile is your forever home.
Some examples of acceptable proof you can include: A voting record in the United States. Tax records for federal, state or local taxes. Evidence of property.

Establishing Proof of U.S. Domicile on Form I-864 Examples of documents that a sponsor can use to establish evidence of domicile include but are not limited to: Federal income tax returns. Home ownership or active lease with evidence of maintaining home. U.S. bank account or other investments.
Driver's License or State ID: As it shows your permanent residence, a valid U.S. driver's license can act as proof of domicile.
Joint sponsor needs to provide the following documents: Proof of US citizenship or permanent resident status. Federal tax return or IRS tax transcript for the most recent year. All W-2 and/or 1099 form(s) for the most recent year.
If you have a joint sponsor, they must also complete Form I-864. If you are using the income of other household members to qualify, then each household member who is accepting legal responsibility for supporting your relative must complete a separate Form I-864A, Contract Between Sponsor and Household Member.
The sponsor does not have to prove the relationship to you (if you are the one being sponsored) but would have to give information of the spouse that was part of the joint filing including the US citizenship or legal residency. The marriage certificate would prove the relationship to the sponsor.
