What address do I put on my DL once the house is gone and I don't own or rent any dirt? Planning on getting a PO Box but not sure if that can be on DL....
 
My NJ license has a PO Box but at renewal I have to show 2 proofs of residence with utility/ cable bills showing the PO Box and physical location.
I don't know about Louisiana perhaps Harlan will show up he lives there and would be familiar what is needed for an address to keep or obtain a DL there.

Billy I could just use Harlan's address!! Ha! That would solve the problem! Thanks
 
Maybe ..... 65 Pluckebaum Place, (at the brand new 65' town of) Mobile, LA , and apply for your own zip code?
 
Just make sure the checks come to my address, send Edwin the bills. :-)
 
Many full time RVers become residents of tax and travel-friendly states like SD. There are companies that provide an address that can be used to receive mail and is their "home." I believe it's a Street and Unit address as if in an apartment, not a PO Box. The "resident" can then direct their "home" to ship their snail mail to arrive at a certain destination on a certain date.
 
If I was wondering about this question I would ask my local drivers license office.

Why George? You don't think you'll get the right answer in ATC on a boating forum?
 
The people I bought our RV from had been full-timers and said it took them an hour or so to become a Resident of South Dakota. I've lost track of them so I don't think I can re-connect for questions. But I ran this gOOgle "full time rv residency" and came up with a lot of hits. One of the better articles was this link http://stephaniehenkel.hubpages.com/hub/Full-Time-RVingHow-to-Establish-State-Residency
www.rv.net is an excellent resource for RVers, and they have a fulltiming section. This is a mail service link on that site

I know only enough about the following issue to tell you it exists and I don't know anything about it:
Will you Document your Vessel with the USCG) or Register it (so you'd have to pick a State). There's no RV analogy to that. The right combination might allow you to avoid annual "registration fees" like FL imposes on documented vessels, and possibly sales/excise taxes on your next boat buy/sell transaction.
 
If you document a vessel, you can list the home port in any state you want. You don't have to live there.

Don't you need a mailing address for the yearly renewals?

Not in RI AFAIK. Ask john Kerry.
 
Florida and Documentation is something I actually DO know something about. IF a Documented Vessel is "primarily used" in FL, then FL collects the same Registration Fee as if the Vessel were not documented. Same as if it were displaying FL Numbers. Except only the Annual Registration Sticker (usually displayed before or after the FL numbers Port Side) is displayed, on a Port Side Cabin Window. If, say, Texas was otherwise equal but did not require registration of documented vessels, then that point would favor TX.
 
A P.O. Box will suffice for the yearly documentation renewal.
