Do I have a cunundrum???

be sure and look at GA's DDS website as the requirements for a DL have increased due to federal positive proof of id requirements. My mother who is 78 and had a GA license since she was 16, had to have her Birth certificate, marriage license and 2 proofs of address (she has lived in the same house for over 50 years) just to renew. This was the first time she has renewed since the new requirements went into affect; supposedly, she want have to have all that time when she renews again, if she is still driving in 10 years.

try Pak Mail in Calhoun. They have mailbox rental and they should be able to give you a unique address like other mail forwarding services. Once you have the mailbox, change some of your bills to that address like credit cards and insurance. Once you have those bills with the new address that matches what the DMV requires, you should have no problem. Most full time RVers use mail fowarding services. We used myrvmail.com in Crestview FL with no problems.

Just renew in SC.They won't know you've moved.Then when you get a permanent residence in Georgia,change your license.

So, that's what that word means!

I have heard some reported doing that to get residence status.

Don't know if that would work in Georgia or not...

The utility billing is the most used method across the country it seems.

I think I would want both my tags and drivers license from the same state. I have seen many autos on the road with TAGS from two different states with one state on the front and the other state on the rear. Don't know how that all works out when you get stopped by law enforcement.

As lucky as I am with these things I know exactly what would happen to me hehe.... I got a ticket in a TEXAS town once for not stopping for a SCHOOLBUS boarding kids on the other side a six lane section in a small town with a raised barrier in the middle. The more I complained the worse it got hehe... Then they wanted to search through all my stuff. Had to completely unload my OFF-ROAD POPUP on the side of the road there. To this day I will go a hundred miles out of the way before going through Jacksboro TX. I still remember the DPS officers name Mr Stevens after 20 years...

Thank you for all the great posts. I will research the info tonight. KOA did mention I could have my mail forwarded to their address. Perhaps the lease thing will work out. A BIG thanks to all!!!!

Go to the Georgia DDS website. Residence requirements are proven by numerous documents. A rental contract from a mobile home park, and even an extended stay hotel are excepted.

In Florida you just need to show a utility bill at the address you are at for 30 day from date you move there. The drivers license and vehicle registrations can be done same time. You are a resident if you live there, and motor vehicle registration is required after 30 days of declaring your intent to domicile there. There must be an address you can use, as mail comes in to the place, so use it with the sight number as your lot, rented. Just tell owner you are doing it and ask if you can put up a mail box near theirs. Then when you build or buy change it. A renter is a resident just like a house owner.
