Swiffer Jet Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 in order for you to be considered a legal resident, don't you have to be in the state for at least 6 months? i don't know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunm Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 I think the first step would just to head down to the local DMV. i'm sure they can point you in the right direction. Welcome to the only state in america that really matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr.yuck Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 Nah i was a resident of VA as soon as i touched down here. Go to the DMV get a CA licence and new tags for your car, if you wish. Go to the post office and have them switch your residency to the place you are staying at now, if you wish. Really all establishing residency is getting checks with your address on them and a hunting licence if you wish. You know just things that locate you to a certain address. I dont think you have to fill out a residency form if that is what you are asking to become a resibent of any state. Then again crazier shit has happend in CA. Look at your governor.

Vanity Posted November 4, 2003 Share Posted November 4, 2003 call information and ask if there's a state operator or something.. they can then ussually point you to a phone number with info on state residency... it'll likely be a recording.. all the rest of the government numbers are. in most states you have to live there like a year, and have your car registered there. and colleges ussually have different residency requirements (which are ussually a lot harder, cause they want your monies) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
