I would need to take care about family member living abroad who is seriously ill. By that reason, the plan is to live outside of US for years. From what I learned so far, most expats keep US address on record. I know there are plenty of virtual mailbox services available, other people prefer to provide the home address of close relative. From other side, I also hear some horror stories that firms like Fidelity or Vanguard does not accept virtual address and require actual residential street address on file. Also it is not clear how virtual address is considered for tax purpose, i.e. for example does California address confirm the residency for tax purpose? It would be nice if those living abroad can comment on this, and which mail forwarding service may be better to this extend?
