As for the non-resident license thing, use your sister's address as your "residence." Go to the DMV for an ID card only, using your sister's address as your "residence." They take a picture and issue you an ID with no questions asked, other than your having to fill out the usual ID request form there. The ID card gives you the same privileges as an actual driver's license, other than for driving. You then have to wait three months before you are eligible to get a hunting license. I got an ID, went to Walmart, took a chance, and got a hunting license right away without the clerk's looking at the date on the ID. All they can do is say "no" if they see that you have been there under three months. Anyway, this is the way you can bypass the non-residency fee. The residency fee is far lower. The ID also entitles you to buy firearms and ammunition, even though you really live out-of-state.
Sotcha deal.
