The Milspouse Guide to Using the Military Spouse Residency Relief Act (MSRRA)

The Military Spouse Residency Relief Act (MSRRA) is a federal law that provides relief to military spouses who are struggling to establish residency in a new state. The MSRRA allows military spouses to use their spouse's military orders as proof of residency for the purposes of voting, obtaining a driver's license, and enrolling in college at in-state tuition rates.

To be eligible for the MSRRA, you must be:

• A military spouse
• Married to an active duty service member
• Living with your spouse in a state other than your legal residence

To use the MSRRA, you will need to provide proof of your spouse's military orders. You can do this by providing a copy of your spouse's orders to the appropriate government agency.

To register to vote using the MSRRA, you will need to provide a copy of your spouse's military orders to your local election officials.

To obtain a driver's license using the MSRRA, you will need to provide a copy of your spouse's military orders to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).

To enroll in college at in-state tuition rates using the MSRRA, you will need to provide a copy of your spouse's military orders to the college or university.

The MSRRA provides a number of benefits to military spouses, including:

• The ability to vote in the state where you are living, even if you have not established residency
• The ability to obtain a driver's license in the state where you are living, even if you have not established residency
• The ability to enroll in college at in-state tuition rates, even if you have not established residency

The MSRRA does not apply to all situations. For example, the MSRRA does not apply to military spouses who are living overseas. Additionally, the MSRRA does not allow military spouses to claim residency in a state for the purpose of paying taxes.

The MSRRA is a valuable resource for military spouses who are struggling to establish residency in a new state. The MSRRA can provide military spouses with the ability to vote, obtain a driver's license, and enroll in college at in-state tuition rates. If you are a military spouse, I encourage you to learn more about the MSRRA and how it can benefit you.
