Establishing multiple residences/I'm kinda(hopefully)moving to PA

Featured Replies

So... I'm a younger person, and I still live with my parents and go to college and such. My parents are in the process of buying a house in PA(providing nothing happens, I'm always cautious) and this kinda puts a burden on me. I pay my own way in school, and tuition is 2x more for out of state students. Yikes. 

 

I plan on legally moving in with my aunt in NJ. Get my tax stuff sent there, change residences with my employer and whatnot. File my taxes through there, and establish NJ residency so I won't get destroyed on tuition. 

 

Is it possible to establish multiple residences? I'd love to have all of my paperwork in NJ, while getting a PA license and then LTCF. Probably not possible though.

 

I'm most likely just going to continue being a legal NJ resident for all purposes. I don't believe I can do what I'd like until I graduate. 

 

I should just transfer to ESU, but NJIT>ESU. 

Get a Utah license and there is no longer much of a need for a PA one (until that day comes when reciprocity laws are changed).

This would be your answer if what you're interested in just carrying in PA. Do you want to establish dual residency for the purposes of buyong firearms in both states is a different matter.

It can be tricky since you want to keep NJ residency for in state tuition. My advice would be to get the Utah permit and wait until you graduate to officially move.

 

For long guns you can buy them in PA. If you are keeping them in PA they don't have to be jersey legal. 30 round pmags, the whole deal. Handguns are a different story.

Technically the long guns need to be nj legal for a dealer to sell them to you. And since you arent a resident thats the only way you can purchase. If you convert it back after you should be fine as long as you don't bring it back into nj.

Firearms license or driver's license? :picknose:

Utah carry permit. If you get a PA DL you are going to be hard pressed to convince them your primary residence is in NJ for tuition purposes. If you change your DL to your aunts address in NJ and live there tutition is okay. If you try to establish residence in PA, get a PA DL and pay taxes there you could conceivably be charged with fraud.

 

The easy answer is just keep your NJ residency status until you finish school, get a UT nonxresident carry permit, and move wherever you want when you graduate.
