Nowhere in this list does it say junk mail is acceptable

https://www.state.nj.us/rpa/MVC%20Six-Point.htm

Proof of Address for Citizens and Non-Citizens - all applicants, citizens and non-citizens, must present proofs of address, which may include, but are not limited to one of these:

Utility or credit card bill issued in the past 90 days that shows your name at your current address

Checking or savings account statement from a bank or credit union, issued within the past two years

High school or college report card or transcript containing your address, issued within the past two years

Original lease or rental agreement showing your name as the lessee or renter

Property tax bill, statement or receipt from the past year

Any letter or correspondence (including tax bills) received from the IRS or state tax office in the last year

First-class mail received from any federal, state or local government agency in the past six months

If the applicant is under 18 and doesn't otherwise have proof of address, the MVC will accept a Parent or Guardian Certification that verifies the applicant is living with a parent or guardian

Nope. I mean, I still get junk mail for my house for people that moved away years ago. That's not going to be proof to MVC that you're a current resident at an address.

Best bet is to have a bill sent to your new address. Anything in your name that has utilities, or a cell phone bill, even?

Yeah I kinda figured my buddy said "it has your name and address on it" but I kinda knew it had to be official.

I printed out a bank statement that had my address since I only get them online now.

I think it has to be a bill.

Call the township or the county or state, and ask them to mail you some bit of information: recycling rules, or a voter registration card, or info on a hunting/ fishing license or something. You won't end up on even more junk mail lists, you'll have proof of address, and it counts as official correspondence for your points. [If they initially balk, just say you don't have reliable internet or your printer is broken or something.]
