Military Income Tax ?
If you are a Texas resident and join the military, do you have to pay Louisiana state tax? The Texas residency is kept the whole time stationed in Louisiana. The tax form was sent to the revenue department in Austin. On the return, it is stated the residency is Texas and the filer is in the military. Also, the majority of that year was spent deployed in a tax free zone. Everything was seemingly filed right. Why would the state claim they're owed tax four years later? Any ideas anyone?

If you are stationed in Louisiana and while there you worked a job outside the military delivering pizza, working at a store, etc... then you would be required to claim that income on Louisiana State Income Tax Forms.
If you were not stationed in Louisiana at all or worked there then there must have been a mistake on the income tax paperwork that was filed. Check to make sure that the residency you listed on there was correct.

when you enlist your home of record is noted on your enlistment papers and remains with you until you reup and change it
if you are a citizen of Texas where there is no income tax you will have to check the laws of La about military pay but generally it is not taxable to the state you are stationed in, if you work on the side, that is taxable to that state

On the bottom of your W-2 the state you're claiming as your home of record is there. If there are dollar amounts in those boxes, you have to file with that state.
