My son was in this position, when he moved from Japan to Ohio for college. We set up an account for him with a local bank, and he was able to register to vote with his college address. While he was in the US, he relied on the health insurance policy offered/required by the school. When he took a campus job, the school withheld state and federal income taxes. There weren’t any real issues. Trying to establish residence for in-state tuition purposes would be a bigger hurdle.
