Reply to comment by [deleted] in Can I get a PA state ID and have a DL from another state? by [deleted]
Well the thing is, I still have TX car insurance, at least for the next year, so I can't really change my DL until I get a new insurance plan. But I also would like to get medical marijuana here and need a state ID for that. As far as voting, I ended up doing an absentee ballot in TX this year but plan to vote in PA for future elections (I wasn't able to get registered in PA in time for this past election).

Well the rules for that are a little murky when you are residing in a new state to go to college. Technically, I can still be considered a TX resident since I'm just here for school. But I will want to officially change my residency eventually.

You can't get insurance or register your car here without a PA DL.
If you paid up front for the whole year, you might be able to transfer to an agent in PA or get a refund if you cancel the policy early.
Insurance is kind of a wishy washy thing. I wouldn't tie yourself to Texas just for insurance.

The PA medical marijuana is for PA residents only I’m afraid. You’d have to change everything over. Residency, drivers license, car insurance & title. And you’d need proof of residency for PennDOT to give you a license, so I’m not sure how that would look for you. I’m a patient in the medical program so DM me if you have questions.

Thanks so much for your reply. I think I'm probably just going to wait until my car's TX registration expires and then go ahead and get new insurance and a PA DL. Guess I'll have to hold off on getting a medical card for now.
