Temporary Loss of Permanent Residence
My question involves a driver's license issued by the State of: NY
I am currently a resident of NY. I have lived here for many years and have a license here and a full-time job teaching. However, I will be moving out of my apartment soon and will not have a permanent residence until mid-August (before the school year starts). In mid-August, I will be moving to a new apartment in NY. During this awkward gap, I will be living at my parents' house which is in a different state. My reason for temporary living there is simply because it saves me almost 2 months of rent and I couldn't find a suitable place to sublet temporarily.
I am fairly certain that this does not constitute a change in residency since I have every intention of returning to NY in August. But, what should I do about my NYS license? Should I change my physical address to my new apartment and my mailing address to my parents' house until I move back to NY?
Thanks for the advice!

You're still eligible for a NY license, but I'd make sure that I inform the DMV of a mailing address that you regularly will check to see if there is any official correspondence (be it a temporary apartment or PO box or mail drop somewhere).

No, not for a two month absence. Just leave everything the way that it is for now.
