Car reg & insurance for out-of-state grad student [in West Virginia]

My D has moved to another state- not for school but she thinks will only be there two years. We’re going to add her name on her Jeep and have her insure it. I was hoping to keep it registered here for convenience since she’s probably coming back but my insurance agent sister says it needs to be insured in the state it is garaged. I just paid it off so when the title arrives we’ll figure out what she needs to do in her state.

Not sure if any of that applies to your D since you guys are sort of switching vehicles but my sister did say if she were to insure it she would have to say it was garaged in our state and that’s just not true.
