NYC local traveling

If i work a per diem contract would i still be able to get free housing? Is there a way for me to travel to NYC eventhough I am a resident of NYC. When I start traveling I will not have an apt in nyc. I will stay time to time w/ my mom in NY. Does this mean that I will still be a nyc resident. I wounder if I could get around if I use my dad's address in GA. ANy suggestions?

By the way suzzanne4 can you pm me and let me know what company you use. You seem to have a great experience w/ them. I would love to kno what perks they give you . I would love to know you company because i know how that if you're sticking with them they must be good. I have read several of your posts and you know ur stuff. Thanks
