Answer 1

There is no way for him to "prove" that it isn't your legal address. According to the US Post Office and the DMV, your mother's address is your legal residence. He cannot tell you where you do and don't reside, and it cannot affect your job status. Quietly remind him of this and let it go from your stand point. If he decides to pursue, warn him of a wrongful termination lawsuit and start looking for a new job. The only way he could prove that you are living with your girlfriend at a home that is not the one listed is if he were to have you followed for a year and see that you weren't staying at your mother's for three consecutive months. And even then it would be a tough (and can we say EXPENSIVE) maneuver, probably still leaving him in the wrong. Employers generally only use your address of residence to verify identity, perform a background check and to mail company information such as your pay stub.

Answer 2

As long as your mother’s address is still a legal mailing address and you can receive mail there, it is fine.

Answer 3

Say that is your permanent address. It is your legal address. It's the address on your driver's license, right?

Answer 4

tell him to prove that its not your legal residence or shut up.
