Default Florida Residency

You will need your existing car titles, drivers license and proof of FL auto insurance. Be sure to do that before you get to FL to be effective when you move here. Be sure the car is with you because they will go outside and check the VIN number of the car (s) you are registering.
Next door to the DMV is the appraisal office where you will want to register for the Homestead exemption for real estate tax purposes, if you qualify. You will need your settlement sheet for that. The applications are due in March each year and it is too late for this year but you can apply for next year.

Website is not specific about how to get it all done at the same time.

I'd like to make an appointment within the week of moving into my new place if possible.

Thanks!
