Myself and my daughter are Texas residents, my husband became a legal Oklahoma resident in 2025 for work. While he still comes home to TX each weekend, we are trying to figure out how to file in this predicament. I am a homemaker and do not work. While he owns and operates a lawn care business in Texas whilst still working in Oklahoma as well. How should we do our return this year?

Texas does not have a state income tax, so you don't need to file a Texas tax return. However, your husband needs to file an Oklahoma state tax return for the income earned there (OK does not tax income earned in TX).

Just be sure to indicate in the Personal Information section that he lived in Texas in 2025, and the date he moved to Oklahoma in 2025.

When you fill out your Federal tax return (including a Schedule C for his lawn care business), he will need to include his income from OK and TX. The software program will route the correct income information to the correct states.
