I believe an Alaska resident is a person who has lived in Alaska for 12 consecutive months and plan to continue to make Alaska their home. You also cannot claim residency in another state.

I am pretty sure you have to have lived in Alaska for 12month before you are legally eligible for "resident status" for hunting/fishing/subsistance stuff.


Welcome to Alaska.

 

And make sure all your vehicles, drivers license,etc are from Alaska or they will get ya.
