Can i use a PO Box address to switch my Drivers license?

Okay i moved from North Carolina to New York can i use a PO Box here in New York as a residency address showing that i have mail and i am living here in NYS? Reason i asked is because i rent a apartment basement apartment and my landlord would prefer to not have any of my mail going up stairs. I also have My NC License SSC proof of bank statement with PO Box address and birth certificate is this enough to use to switch my license? i also can use my debit card which has my name on it.

    No. A PO box is not a residence and does not prove residency. A PO box is simply a mailing address. Other proof such as a rental agreement, utility bill in your name, etc will be required to prove residency.

    You cannot use a post office box to show where you are living, because you can't live in a post office box, and you can have a post office box somewhere that you don't live.

    You can have the mail sent to the post office box, but you still have to tell the DMV where you are really living, even if you don't want any mail sent there.

    BS - I called the NY Driver's License Office (I actually got a live person!) and they said a P.O. Box is O.K.
