Re: What to do with DL when moving out of the US?
I had a colleague working with me in Louisiana. On a business trip to Texas he failed to see a red light in bright sunlight and hit another car. No injuries, he took full responsibility and the Sheriff said that although the damage to the cars was minor and the rental car insurance was all in order that he would still have to write him a ticket. My friend then produced his UK driving license (even though he did have a Louisiana license) and the Sheriff didn't fancy all the extra paperwork so let him off with a warning.

The young cop who pulled us over seemed certain to write us a ticket until my girlfriend pulled out her GB driving licence.
"Didn't you need to pass an Ohio state driving test?"
"No, we're visiting from the UK."
We were then let on our way as he had evidently never seen an out-of-state licence let alone a foreign one and didn't know where to begin.

I've got a drawer full of expired DLs from all over the world including US jurisdictions and no-one has come after me for taxes.
As far as Nevada goes, who cares, no State income tax and it's one of only two States that doesn't have an information-sharing agreement with the IRS.
Like I said, the main thing to fill in is IRS Form 8822.
