A military member’s residency is based on the state they list as their legal residence for tax purposes with the military as found on their LES. If you’re in the military and you list Texas as your legal residence for tax purposes, you will be classified as a resident of Texas. To claim residency through this process, you must have resided in Texas for one year at some point. Please see the College for Texans Financial Aid – Waivers page for information on out-of-state-tuition waivers for military members who are not Texas residents.
