Florida Residential Address

Understand your Florida residential address, how it differs from PO Boxes, and how it is used with the DMV, banks, and government agencies, each of which sets its own rules.

Key Takeaways

You receive a real Florida residential street address, NOT a PO Box and NOT a CMRA
Your address is at an RV & mobile home community - a legitimate residential location
Used for Florida driver's licenses, bank accounts, and IRS records; each institution sets its own rules
This address becomes your legal domicile address for tax purposes

What Kind of Address Do You Provide?

Your Tax Base provides a real Florida residential street address at an established RV and mobile home community. This is NOT a PO Box, commercial mail receiving agency (CMRA), or virtual address - it's an actual residential location that you can legally use as your domicile.

Why This Matters: The Florida DMV requires a residential street address for driver's license applications. PO Boxes and commercial addresses are not accepted. Our addresses are real Florida residential street addresses, not PO Boxes and not CMRAs. Each DMV office still decides what it accepts.

Why an RV Community Address?

RV and mobile home communities are recognized residential areas under Florida law. Many people legally live in these communities full-time, and addresses there are treated the same as any other residential address. This makes them ideal for:

Full-time RVers who travel the country
Digital nomads working remotely
Expats living abroad who need a US address
Snowbirds splitting time between states

Intent Matters: A residential address is one part of domicile. What establishes Florida domicile is your intent to make Florida your permanent home, shown through records like a Declaration of Domicile filed under Florida Statute §222.17, a Florida driver's license, and voter registration.

Using Your Address with Banks and Financial Institutions

Our customers receive mail at their Florida mailbox from banks and brokerages including Vanguard, Chase, American Express, Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, Charles Schwab, Fidelity, Bank of America, Capital One, Discover, U.S. Bank and USAA.

No. When you add a spouse or family member to your account, they share the same Florida residential address and the same mailing address as the primary account holder. Both of you appear on the household record, both can use the address with the DMV, banks, and the IRS, and mail for either of you arrives at the same location. Each spouse still files their own notarized Form 1583 individually (a USPS requirement), but the underlying address is the same.
