Your husband's state of legal residence is FL and he is exempt from VA tax on his military income while stationed in VA.
As the spouse of an active-duty military member, your state of legal residence does not have to change just because you are accompanying your husband to VA as a result of his assignment. In many cases, you can even be exempt from VA state income tax on your VA income.
To be exempt from VA state income tax on your VA income, however, VA requires you and your husband have to be residents of the same state. In your situation, that is not the case.
Now it gets a bit tricky. If you are still an OK resident, you and your husband can file a joint, non-resident VA tax return. You will still pay tax on your VA income, but he will not pay tax on his military income.
If, however, you are a VA resident , you will file a joint federal return with your husband and you will each have to file a separate VA return. You must file on Form 760, he must file Form 763.
This is hard to do using TurboTax online. It is much easier to do using a CD/Download of TurboTax.
