Moving to Texas? It's exciting! But did you know that to get the Texas tax benefits (no personal income tax!), you need to show you really live there? It's not just about moving your boxes.
- Get a Texas driver's license.
- Register your car in Texas.
- Register to vote in Texas.
- Tell your bank and credit card companies your new address.
- Get a permanent Texas address (rent or buy a home).
Requirement | Details |
---|---|
Driver's License | Get it within 90 days. |
Vehicle Registration | Within 30 days of moving. |
Voting | Not required but helpful to show you live there. |
If you only live in Texas part of the year, you might still owe taxes in your other state. Talk to a grown-up about this if you are moving!
