Yes, you do need to know if he/she is a GA resident or not. You should not speak of what you do not KNOW.
I have personally found that MOST ppl. that don't wanna do a BOS is either not a resident of GA or a felon.
How did you find this out?
Could you post the results of the survey?
Why do you need to know if they are Ga. residents?
Is there some law that states that you must verify that they are Ga. citizens?
Why wouldn't a felon want to do a BOS?
Do you think it will have a red bar on his Florida DL that states he's a felon?
What is your definition of KNOWINGLY?
Inquiring minds want to know.
