I do this exact same thing. Though, I have the benefit of sharing a name with my father so proof of residency had had never been an issue. It feels like cheating but it's so damn convenient lol.

You have hacked the system. Bravo.
At least in MA for a driver's license, there are a lot of documents that can be used for proof of residency including things like cell phone and auto insurance bills.
Lots of people's names aren't on utility bills. They may be sharing a place with others or utilities may be included in the rent.
I use my dad's address for my permanent residence. But since I'm not on the utility bills, it can be hard to provide true residence. In one case, I had to write up a lease agreement & buy renter's insurance to get one of my accounts unlocked. They wouldn't accept a bank statement, my driver's license, or voter registration card. It was a real pain in the ass, and resolving it took a good 2 weeks.
