If I own a house in Texas and Louisiana, is it legal to have my address in Texas althoughmy kids attend school in Louisiana and the Texas home is more of a vacation home?

I work overseas but my income is paid from my company in California. I spend time at both residences but my family stays at the Louisiana when I am at work. My spouse does not work or have an income. I currently file a Louisiana tax return.

 "Domicile" (the tax term) is complicated.  Examples of questions you should ask are:

• Where are you most of the time,
• Where is your driver's license issued,
• Where is your auto registered,
• Where are you registered to vote,
• Where are you permanently employed,
• Where do you own property,
• Where do your children attend school,
• Where is your family, etc.
