I live in NY right now but recently bought 4 acres in Alabama.I will be paying property taxes so am I eligible for a resident license?I will be moving to Alabama as soon as a settlement for a car accident is reached.Until then,I'm stuck up in NY getting killed by taxes and high prices.My father is moving down the this summer so I will have a place to stay and hunt.We are in Rainbow City.I came down there in March and bought a beautiful piece of property and it must be good hunting because there was a tree stand on it already.Can't wait to get out of NY and 7 months of snow.

TO the best of my knowlege if you actually reside in the state and receive your mail here you are eligible. This is to keep someone from buying a tiny parcel of land and calling it home just to keep from paying nonresident fees. I think this is a problem with people who live just across the line in neighboring states and want to hunt/fish in both as residents. Welcome to Alabama when you get here. 2 deer a day, 1buck and 1 doe or 2 does during about a 70 day season. You'll be trading the snow for our humidity in summer. You'll see what I mean when you get here. Again, welcome.

If you maintain residence ( driving license, mailing address, bills, etc) for about 100 days you can buy a resident license or a lifetime hunting license. Till then you have to buy the $252 (unless it changed) non-residence license. Owning land in the state (a larger acerage may make a difference due to taxes paid) won't help. Welcome to the south.
