Your domicile is already established--it's Nevada, where you're currently living.  When you start traveling, you'll just be Nevadans who are traveling.

Is your driver's license a Real ID?  If not, I'd get it upgraded to one right now, while you still have a residence in Nevada that you can use for the physical address, and you have easy access to paperwork that shows that address, if you need any.

In that same vein, if I were you, I'd try to renew it now rather than wait for the expiration date, while you still have a physical address where you're actually living--a very clean transaction.  That will extend the time when it will come up for renewal again. 

Actually, Nevada has an early renewal process that it says is "highly recommended for those who are planning an extended trip outside of Nevada," which is what you're doing.  Scroll down to "early renewal" on this site:

You should get your new mailing address well in advance of when you start traveling, and immediately start using it, to give everything time to get switched over.

TY and good advice. I do have the Real ID Nevada drivers license already thats good till 2025 so I'll start checking with dmv policies and getting a forwarding address started. thanks, swissone

We are current residents of Nevada but plan on selling our home and going full time RV living this summer of 2022. Since our licenses and vehicle and voter registrations are currently in Nevada, does it make sense to just establish our domicile here as we migrate over to fulltime RV life? I know Nevada isn't one of the "big three" preferred domicile states, there is no state income tax and most of the things we'd have to demonstrate to establish domicile, I believe we already have. Would there be any advantages to us establishing domicile in say...Texas such as using Escapees mail forwarding service, lower DMV fees, or other reasons I'm not aware of?  thanks, New Forum Member, Bob
