Here is the official list of suggestions from USCIS.

~~I believe you have to prove you have been here since 2007 for expanded DACA.~~
Correction: Proof of presence required from Jan 1, 2010 - Thanks for the flier information Shootingstars2014!

Continuous Residence in the U.S. between June 15, 2007 and June 15, 2012
To prove continuous residence in the U.S. between June 15, 2007 and June 15, 2012, the 5
years required by the deferred action announcement, consider submitting some of the
following evidence:

Employment records (from past employers);
School records (from the school or the school district which maintains records);
Rent or utility bills (from the landlord or the utility company);
Hospital or medical records (from the hospital or the medical provider);
Attestations by churches, unions or other organizations (obtain letters, notarized if
possible, attesting to the applicant’s residence, with specific dates that the author of the
letter can attest to from personal experience or from church or union records);
Money order receipts;
Passport entries;
Birth certificates of applicant’s children born in the United States;
Medical, school and other records of applicant’s children born in the United States;
Bank account statements;
Insurance statements or records, including automotive, life, health, and other insurance;
Social Security records;
Census records (obtain through census.gov)
Selective Service Registration (obtain through sss.gov)
Automobile license receipts, title, or vehicle registration;
Driver’s license or ID records from state and local governments;
Deeds, mortgages, contracts to which the applicant has been a party (including cell
phone contracts and bills)
Tax receipts and filings (obtain from IRS or state/local taxing authority)
Any other relevant documentation you can think of;
Affidavits from individuals who know the applicant and who can attest to the applicant’s residence in the U.S. The individual making the affidavit must state his/her name, address, how he/she knows the applicant, how long he/she has known the applicant, and how he/she knows about the applicant’s continued residence in the United States since the date of entry, or for periods relevant to the 5 year window, or both. The affidavit does not need to be in a particular format, and can take the form of a letter, but should be signed before a notary public (which can be obtained at a law office or at your local bank). Do not allow notaries to give you immigration legal advice!!!

If the applicant had any absence from the U.S. during the relevant period, be prepared to show that it was “brief, casual, and innocent,” which is a temporary trip abroad required by emergency or extenuating circumstances outside the applicant’s control. Such an absence can be supported by documentary evidence including the following:

Plane or other transportation tickets or itinerary showing travel dates;
Passport entries;
Hotel receipts showing dates the applicant was abroad;
Evidence of the purpose of the travel abroad (e.g. attended a wedding or funeral);
Copy of any advance parole travel document;
Affidavits of persons who know the applicant and the reasons why the applicant
traveled out of the U.S., and for what period of time;
Any other evidence that could support the brief, casual, and innocent character of the
absence.

Also consider online purchases with shipping receipts (your name needs to be on it) and Facebook posts/Foursquare check-ins/Twitter GPS entries.

Your school records will show all that time you were in school but what you need to do is find some sort f evidence for each year after that so you said 2007 -11 set it up where any medical record any receipts anything that has your name and date one per year from 07-11 to show you haven't keft the U.S.
