Once you begin living in Michigan, you will need to pay MI state income tax.   You pay income tax to the state that you LIVE in even if you are working remotely for a TX-based employer.  Find out if the employer will withhold MI tax from your paychecks.  If they will not do that, then you should make quarterly estimated payments to the state to avoid a big state tax due at tax time.

TX has no state income tax, so you do not have anything to file for TX.

Thanks a lot for reply, Now i work and live in TEXAS on-site for same employer but beginning of December  I will be working remotely in Texas for a MI-Based employer, So do i need to pay MI state Income tax because i work remotely from Texas for a MI-Based employer or not?

Until you actually LIVE in Michigan, you do not pay Michigan income tax.   Once you actually move to Michigan and live there, that is when you are subject to Michigan state income tax.
