I live in San Francisco and have just registered a sole proprietorship. I have a private mailbox that I used for all addresses on the paperwork I will be doing web design and development working with clients remotely via email. On the paperwork, it asks for residence address, which also becomes public information. Hypothetically speaking, if I used my street address (PMB) for everything, is that okay? Not looking for legal advice, just wondering if you might have any experience or knowledge how it works with this type of situation.

You can't receive packages (or FedEx or UPS mail) at a PO Box, which makes using a PO Box logistically problematic. I'm not an attorney, nor am I familiar with the requirements for entity creation in California. However, in Texas we are required to provide the address for the Registered Agent, which is where official correspondence from the state will be sent. Texas will not allow us to use a PO Box for this address. However, that only pertains to an official PO Box issued by the US Postal Service. We actually use a private mailbox through an executive suite company.
