I am a US citizen, but have two separate businesses that use virtual business addresses provided by two small mailbox businesses in Oregon that have been painless for all addressing/mail needs. The key point is to make sure your businesses registered agents contact info works and that legal correspondence can get to you through them.

However, this is for business address. I am referring to personal address.

I have two concerns:

1. AFAIK, all mail forwarding companies need to be registered with USPS as “commercial mail receiving agency”. This can get flagged by IRS, etc if I use it as a personal address

2. Various services (e.g. banks), might require to prove that I live at the location (e.g. telephone bills with that address [although now that I think about it, this might be less of a problem])
