You read about residency fraud coming from States like Texas and South Dakota... Using the street address of a mail forwarding business sure sounds fishy to me...
States will not accept a PO BOX NUMBER for drivers license for example.

Roy - Sounds like to me your research has been faulty. For example, in Texas the SKP's organization took the state to court and their Personal Mailbox service (not a PO Box) is LEGAL address for any and all functions - voting, car registration, driver's license, etc.
Also in S.D. the state excepts the mail services PMB's as legal addresses for License, voting and registration. One only needs to sign a legal document stating you are a full time RV'er and PLAN to return to the state when you settle down. I plan to do that but my needs may change when I eventually do get off the road. Nothing illegal about that, people are free to move anywhere they so desire.
Sounds fishy? Hmmm... using a friend or family members address is the fishy one. And most probably illegal as a drivers license address, voting address, etc.
Do more research in the mail services in Texas and SD and get informed about the state's laws.

research "Domicile" in this and other forums. We have been legal residents of Rainbow Drive in Livingston TX for 5 years complete with voting rights etc. - its a mail forwarding service. Nothing illegal or fishy about it.
