There are some issues with using a mailing service as a permanent address. Some people, businesses, and Federal government agencies seem to believe that it is required for everyone to have a fixed address such as a house, apartment or piece of land.....
Thanks Jim, that's sort of what I was thinking too. Apparently the Passport and Homeland Security stuff is not really affected as noted above that the "Address is just penciled in..." and that was my main concern.
While I currently have a condo, I would think it would be just an out of state property. I was concerned that they use the 'Place of Occupancy' for a longer time period, like 6 months or whatever.
I also recall, from a previous PMB years ago with Mail Etc (bought by the current UPS) that certain "Addresses" were tagged as PMB locations regardless of the "Apt/unit/whatever #) as a PMB and since you can live in a PMB Box, they pushed further for something like "Where do you Sleep at night" thing.
One form the PMB has is the notarized Post Office form that the PO uses as authourization to forward mail to the PMB. I realized if I had sent that and I still wanted some limited mail to condo directly, it was get caught in a loop.
Local business, like utilities would be sent to the PMB who would bundle it up and send to condo an PO would intercept and send to PMB, heheh, it got a "Doh !!!" factor...
So not going to send that form in until I hit the road. Also, it'll give me time to change address and see how it works.
Thanks for the heads up, that's what I was looking for, the "Issues" in some states. I'm currently getting the Insurance for truck/camper/buggy etc.. hopefully it won't be too out of line, State Farm, been with them for some 25+yrs, which doesn't really mean anything, no claims. heheh..
Onward and upward....
thanks..
