I will be moving to Colorado in 3 weeks... I have ample medical records to support my need for MM so that is not my concern... it is this, do I need a Drivers License as proof of residency or can I use my House Lease, power bill.... I heard you are not a resident of the state of Colorado until you have lived there for 90 days... then you can apply for your DL... Can I see a Dr. and get that started before being a resident?... any help would be appreciated...
I moved to co.feb.08 and that week I went and got my lic.changed.you do need a dl.for your card andof course med .records.
This is what you needQuote:

a lot of states consider you to be a legal Resident, upon gaining employment (whether you want to be a resident, or not :wtf:) ... they do that, to guarantee their tax revenues, etc.. :smokin:
You just need a Colorado ID. You can get one for like 12 bucks, just a regular state ID not necessarily a driver's license. You can go to the doctor's at any time before you get it, but the application has to be mailed in within 7 or 10 days of seeing the doctor. There is no length of residency requirement, only a current residency requirement. If you have an ID listing your address you're considered a current resident, the less than 3 months thing won't be a problem. Just make sure you have an ID within 7 or 10 days after getting your recommendation from the doctor because your doctor recommendation has a very short shelf life.
u forgot to add that if u go for just the id they will void your dl where ever it's from. it is illegal to have 2 id's. how do i know cause thats what i was gunna do and keep my cdl.they told me if i get the co id then they had to take my dl.call and ck for yourself. im sure pfunk,greatful and top jazz will call me full of shit.so go fig it came from the great state of co not me.....:wtf:Quote:

You can also establish residency by submitting along with your application a driver's license or general ID from another state along with a phone or utility bill addressed to you at your Colorado address. It is not difficult to establish residency and there is no mandatory waiting period, assuming you truly are a resident.
yes i agree my problem is i had a cdl that i wanted to keep as im not driving a rig right now.so i was gunna do the 2 types of proof and i was told that if i did it that way i'd have to wait 90days so i went ahead and just got the co dl. and really u are supposed to do that anyways within 10 days of a move.Quote:

Thanks for all the info... I got my Card and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was... I decided to go to the Durango Healing Center ... they handled everything for me and they were very reasonable as well... nice place and people... I brought all my records, id's, proof of residency... saw the doc and had my temporary card in hand within an hour... so, not meant to be an advertisement for them, but they made it as easy as it could have been...
