Proof of Residency Options

All options must show your physical address, not a PO box!

  • Driver’s license or State ID
  • Lease or real estate purchase agreement
  • Utility or tuition bill
  • Bank statement
  • Current hunting or fishing license
  • Voter registration (we can look it up)
  • Payroll or government check

Even if you split time between multiple addresses, by law, you must have only one legal domicile. Generally, this will be where your driver’s license was issued and where you are registered to vote. If that location is not in Blue Hill, then we cannot perform resident-only transactions for you, even if you have a secondary residence here.
