Hi all, I am a remote worker and have been living and working on the road for the past 2 years. I have established my domicile in Texas through my Escapees address. I recently accepted a new job offer (also remote) for a large corporation. During the interview process, I explained my situation to the hiring company as being based in Texas but actually being nomadic and traveling. The HR representative said, "as long as you are based in Texas, you can be away as long as you want." I am now undergoing a background check. It has suddenly occurred to me that it could potentially cause an issue in a background check for my home address to come up as an Escapees address. The hiring manager, hr rep, and all of my coworkers are cool with my situation, but I am not sure if the escapees address will be flagged as an invalid location (despite being OK by my bank and paying all my taxes through it). Has anyone else had a similar situation arise? Did it cause you any issues?

Thank you all for the help! We have are Texas plates and are going to head to Texas next week to get our drivers license. I had one question about filling out the application- if we are living in an RV and using the escappees mail service, how would we classify our address on the DL application- ""single family home", "apartment ", "motel", or "temporary shelter""?

Thank you for the information! It sounds like I may travel down to Livingston myself to register my vehicle and get my license. My wife will try her luck with our nearest DPS and will go down later if we run into a problem.

Hi everyone, We are not actually RVers but will be digital nomads traveling internationally while working for a US-based company without actually having a US residence. We will continue to pay US taxes while abroad and will handle all of our banking through the US. I am planning to set up an address with Escapees in Texas so I can begin the domicile process in June after we sell our house. We currently live 2 hours from the Texas border in Arkansas so we can easily get to Texas but it will be more challenging for us to get back and forth from Livingston where Escapees (~6 hours) is based out of. My question is this- do we need to be in the county of our future domicile to get our drivers license or can we just go to any TxDPS office in Texas to get our license? Thanks in advance!
