Screening Advice / Been out of hobby for 2+ years

So, I'm from the NY area and I've been out of the game for some time. I think last time I saw a provider was summer of 2017.

Any advice on the best way to get verified these days? Seems like the providers out this way are a bit stricter than in NY (which is a great thing IMO.)

I used to be able to use my work address, etc.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. There's a few providers I really want to see while I'm here and have the freedom.

Thanks in advance!
Establishing a board presence goes a long way. See some local newbie friendly providers who have good track records to establish references. Do your due diligence and research, research, ask for intell and recommendations from local hobby Bros. Politeness and courtesy go a long way. Don't do anything you don't feel comfortable with and maintain your hobby integrity. Swamp land has its own flavor and flow. Good luck, dude.
