Why a Residential Address Changes Everything

Your Accounts Are at Risk

Without a residential address, Schwab, Fidelity, and Chase may freeze or close your accounts. A PO Box won’t satisfy KYC requirements.

Every Month Costs You Money

Florida = 0% income tax. California = 13.3%. New York = 10.9%. Every month you wait is hundreds or thousands lost.

A PO Box Won’t Protect You

Banks, the DMV, and the IRS need a residential address — not a PO Box or CMRA. Only a true residential address establishes legal domicile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Our Florida residential address is a legitimate physical address within a residential community — not a PO Box or commercial mail-receiving agency (CMRA). It satisfies KYC (Know Your Customer) requirements at Charles Schwab, Fidelity, Chase, Bank of America, and all major U.S. financial institutions.

Absolutely. Florida has no minimum residency requirement. Establishing domicile requires documenting your intent to make Florida your permanent home, which is done through a Declaration of Domicile, updating your driver's license, and maintaining ties to your Florida address. We guide you through every step.

It depends on your current state and income. For example, a California resident earning $150,000 pays approximately $19,950 in state income tax. Florida has 0% state income tax. Our calculator above gives you a personalized estimate in seconds.

A PO Box is a commercial mail drop — banks, the DMV, and the IRS don't accept it as a residential address. A CMRA (virtual mailbox) is a commercial facility that also fails residency requirements. Our address is a legitimate residential address within a Florida community, qualifying as a true 'place of abode.'

You'll need one in-person visit to the DMV for your Florida driver's license (many clients combine this with a vacation). The Declaration of Domicile can be filed by mail. All other setup is handled remotely.

You receive a Florida residential address card, a Declaration of Domicile (notarized), proof of address letters for banks and institutions, USPS Form 1583 for mail authorization, and access to our digital mail portal.

Most clients have their Florida address active within 48 hours of signing up. Full domicile documentation, including Declaration of Domicile, is typically ready within 1-2 weeks.

A virtual mailbox (CMRA) doesn't qualify as a residential address for banking, DMV, or tax purposes. Many of our clients switch from a CMRA to our residential address specifically because institutions flagged their CMRA as non-residential.

Yes. Our Tax Guardian and Premium plans include one additional family member. Additional family members can be added for a small monthly fee.

The 183-day rule applies to some states that try to claim you as a resident if you spend 183+ days there. By establishing Florida domicile, you create documented proof that Florida is your permanent home, which is your strongest defense if another state challenges your residency.

Yes. We scan the exterior of all incoming mail and notify you via our digital portal. You can then choose to have items opened and scanned, forwarded to any address worldwide, or securely shredded.

You can cancel anytime with no penalties. Mail forwarding continues for 30 days after cancellation. We recommend updating your address with institutions before canceling.

No long-term contracts. All plans are billed quarterly or annually, and you can cancel at any time.

Our Premium plan includes business entity support. You can use your Florida residential address for business registration, registered agent services, and more.

We provide step-by-step guidance and all required documentation. You'll need to visit a Florida DMV office once with your proof of address, Social Security card, and current ID. The process typically takes under an hour.

You can register to vote in Florida using your residential address. This further strengthens your domicile claim. We provide guidance on the process.

Yes. Once you've established Florida domicile, you file your federal tax return with your Florida address. Since Florida has no state income tax, you won't file a state return.

Residency is where you physically live. Domicile is your legal permanent home — where you intend to return. You can live abroad and maintain Florida as your domicile. Domicile determines your tax obligations.

We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. If you're not satisfied for any reason within the first 30 days, we'll refund your payment in full — no questions asked.

Yes. Travel nurses need a documented tax home to receive tax-free per diem and housing stipends. Our Florida residential address establishes your tax home, protecting these benefits from IRS scrutiny.

Having documented Florida domicile — including your Declaration of Domicile, Florida driver's license, and residential address — provides the strongest defense against another state's residency claims. Our Tax Guardian plan includes CPA access for audit guidance.

No. Your passport doesn't need to reflect your Florida address. However, you should update your address with the State Department for correspondence purposes.
