He is required to maintain continuous coverage or to surrender his plates before any deployments.
Is he unable to ensure that he will maintain continuous coverage or to surrender his plates now, before he departs for basic training?
That is correct.  He is unable to pay forward enough on his policy to ensure it would give him continuous coverage for the period he will be gone and he is unable to get to the DMV during business hours to surrender the plates at this time.
Basic training is not a deployment.  The DMV does have a procedure in place to exempt military personnel from the requirements, however the procedure pertains to returning from deployment.
What would happen if his NY State registration would expire while he is on active duty?
Registrations are extended for up to 60 days from return to NY State.  This extension applies only to vehicles registered to military personnel.  He would need to show proof of military service or separation.
Is there another resource I could use to get more information?

Hey, hello, how is it going?. Em, its kinda shame but i heard about these services which support those people who pass through sexual traumas. How can anyone enjoy that?
Are you a veteran who experienced MST?
No, not myself. I'm just asking.
I guess it is, but, Are these services privacy protected? i mean, are they anonymous?
Of course they are. The well being of the veteran is a top priority, so you can get confidential counseling on any support you need.
O.k, that good. Look, someone who pass through these could end on the streets, what could you do for him or her?
They can contact the National Call center for Homeless veterans, 24/7. There, a trained VA counselor will offer information about homeless programs.
Umm, that must be very helpful. Say, lets imagine this person who wants to access the program doesn't have a VA care provider, it can still access the program?
Well, in that case, the person should go for its nearest VA medical center and ask to speak to an MST coordinator.
Um, makes sense. And for getting access to all this, do the individual need something like a disability rating or being in other VA services or having reported the trauma?
No, it doesn't need to. He or she can access the program without any probation document.
