Please do not give up as your family needs you.
Sorry that happened to you. I am on it for life but my crime was in Florida, People who did not commit their crime in Florida should not be subject to it and the only reason (In my opinion) that they do that is to get more funding as the registry steadily grows in proportion.
There should be a huge sign at the border of Florida stating if you are on a registry and come to Florida, “We own you”.

I am warning you sir…DO NOT GO.
I was not even on nj registry and never had to register in nj. However went to FL for a week to visit parents and was required to check in due to probation in nj.
I am now on Florida registry and it is has ruined my life to the point of ending it.

If you’re coming to Florida and are required to report to NY before you go. You should expect a possibility of being listed for life in Florida on list. You will activate the red alert button in Florida. There is no uniformity between states. And yes Federal funding is key. All of my government classes and education say’s this doesn’t make sense. But it is reality.

Nope.

You would be put on the Florida registry for life. Unless you don’t care if they add you, I would steer clear of us down here. And in most scenarios, once you registered here, you have to come back and register each year for whatever situation they place you in. For me, I have to register four times a year, even though there was no registry when I was sentenced.
Florida’s registry is for life unless you pay an attorney and the judge agrees.
You can call the Florida department of law enforcement and have them tell you the rules but I have seen numerous people come down here for vacation and once they leave, find out they are for life on Florida’s registry, and many have to come back down and register again each year (or in my case, 4 times a year for life).

I forgot to tell you, there are 1000s of dead people on Florida’s Sex offense registry. I spent 5 hours going through each county (We have 67 counties) and was in tears for the families whose loved ones died on the registry, but Florida keeps them on there unless an attorney is hired to get them removed.
THAT is how bad it is here to be a registered person.

All 50 states have their own laws and rules, and are not always the same as the Federal laws and rules for the registry. Florida especially likes to use fly traps and catch us doing something bad like being a tourist.
Whoever thought that going on vacation could end you up on another state’s registry. (And in Florida it is for life) *There are some who are able to be removed under certain circumstances.
