Spanish term or phrase: fijar domicilio
I read this as saying that he has to fix his residence, as in he can't move home. But I feel sure that wouldn't be a likely constraint (more likely they would say that if he moved, he had to let them know).
What do others think, please?

agree  Wordwatcher: Domicile is a word to be used very cautiously (and rarely) in translations into English. Usually your domicile is chosen for you, not by you.
