Do I have to get a CA license?[/quote]

You don’t need a CA license right away, in fact I would not register your cars for an entire year if you can. Cheaper to keep it registered out of state.

This is questionable advice from a legal standpoint.

You’re considered a CA resident if your dependents attend school here.

If you’re moving to California, you have 10 days to apply for a California driver’s license.

You must register your car in California if it is based in California or spends a majority of its time on California highways.
