You only pay tax to Louisiana.  Texas has no state tax, and no state tax forms to file.  For Louisiana, you are a part-year resident.  To make sure that this is calculated correctly: 

1.    Click on Personal Info at the top of the screen

2.    Drop down to #2, Tell us what state you lived in (Make sure that Louisiana has been selected, because it asks for which state you lived in last)

3.    On the question, “I lived in another state…” Click yes and enter Texas.

The Louisiana section of TurboTax will probably ask when you moved into Louisiana.
